He had a lovely time at the Expo today and got his photo taken with the trophy and signed the wall but got all camera shy when Andrew Lemoncello was talking to me.
Sticky moment earlier when flybe failed to deliver my bag from my flight .... nasty moment but at least my shoes and Barry were in my handluggage .... the bag turned up about an hour late ... it had got stuck somewhere.
Never thought I would be jealous over anything 7 inches long,hard and that thin but given Barry's trip to planned trip to USA and him brushing shoulders with celebs at Expo, I thinkI maybe a touch envious
Anyway TP and Baz -enjoy!! There are some other "coasters" doing VLM too and maybe you will meet .
I will be strenuously watching on my flat screen on Sunday. Lovely to see some of the "old feel" on this thread too. Actually am quite moved by seeing it here
Barry and I are home now and unpacked. I'm resting on the sofa, he's on the dining room table
I will try to upload some photos to FB tomorrow if I can find the camera cable. I got him in one of my official finishing photos too but he'll not be in any of the others as he spent a lot of time in my bum bag. It was very hot and I was in need of both hands to hold water and wipe sweat .... and I was terrified he'd get knocked off my wrist when it was very busy. But round he went .... they wouldn't give me an extra medal for him though .... and sorry, but he's not having mine!!
He needs to go off again very soon but the next person hasn't got back to me with an address. I'm away on holiday from very early Friday morning so he will need to be in the post before then. Is there a Plan B if the next person doesn't check in? I sent a PM
Well done TP and Barry sounds like you and Barry had great time.
I'm not in contact with BrOders but I don't mind you sending Barry special delivery to me if BrOders doesn't get in touch. I would suggest you leave it as late as possible, although I plan on running Rivington pike fell race on Saturday, so he could tag along on that if he fancies it and arrives in time?

Woody -we have 3 weeks to get hold of Br0ders wherever Barry is. It would be great if he could do Rivington with his daddy

According to the Post Office Tracker Barry was delivered yesterday.
I may yet meet Barry again as I've somehow found myself entering the Baker Hughes 10K and I'll get a chance to say hello before he heads off with Duckinator
Shame about the stitch Phil, still a brilliant time well done.
To take take part in diary event you
1/ Have to be a coaster ( took part in the 2010 event).
2/ Have to use "Special Delivery" to post Barry on (he is valuable) or pass on by hand
3/ Priority to British Events.
4/ In the event that two runners are doing races on same date, priority will go to the runner that has not run a previous Diary event. or a ballot If both runners have equal claim.

He had a lovely time at the Expo today and got his photo taken with the trophy and signed the wall but got all camera shy when Andrew Lemoncello was talking to me.

Perhaps post him to Woody2run TP I think he lives not far from Br0ders .
well done on your mara - and rest is a great idea
Well done TP and Barry sounds like you and Barry had great time.

I've messaged SJPC14 to see if he has any contact details for BrOders I will keep you posted.

Woody -we have 3 weeks to get hold of Br0ders wherever Barry is. It would be great if he could do Rivington with his daddy
His schedule is quite packed

You never know you may start missing his little wooden presence. I am glad you enjoyed your time with him and you never know,you could meet him again.
bloody hell Philip -that is still a good time stitch or not-lol You will see Barry soon enough.
Well done
