Ahh didn't know that - there are quite a lot of us that live in and around the Epsom/Surrey/Sussex area though so there is no reason why there can't be 2
LN - if there is enough interest then I don't mind sussing it out but I don't want to step on anyones toes if things are already arranged - I am a lapsed pirate btw but I'm sure HC will try and convince me otherwise
While we're kind of one the subject, you're not up for an adventure race by any chance? Trogs needs a team member for a really fun event in December. Basically, 5k off road run, bit of MTB, kayak, bit more MTB then a little bit of running.
Def no swimming involved* so definitely doesn't count as a pirate event. Honest.
*unless you fall in the lake or get a puncture in your kayak

when and where in December HC ? Not been in a kayak for a long time - and tell me that the MTB ride isn't like the one we went on last year - hehehehe - I honestly thought I was going to die - god I'm such a wimp
Sunday 12th December. Erm, (crosses fingers behind back) the bike bit isn't that bad! It's a bit muddy but you soon get into it. The kayak is only about 500 yards and is more of a giggle.
Right I've looked on Kangas Bollock Bruiser thread and every Saturday from the beginning of November seems to be mentioned one way or another so here are my suggestions for this and people can make a decision and as I'm sorting it I would prefer a Saturday so here goes :-
Saturday 27th November - this is the day after the normal Social at Doggetts
Saturday 4th December - Pirates up North do
Saturday 11th December - can't remember what else !!!!
Saturday 18th December - bit near to Christmas !!!
Last year it was the Marquis of Granby and I see no reason to change so if peeps want to say which suits them if any then I'll sort it.
Made it down to epsom last year, but it was further than I remembered....... so I recon its the london do this time for me. I'll mention it to Shuffle though - she might convince me
Saffers, there are trains from Horsham but they don't run very late. However, I currently have a designated driver so as long as she hasn't gone into labour I might be able to persuade her out for a glass or two of lemonade.
I'm going to suggest Saturday 4th December as it's when the Northen people are having theirs so shouldn't impede anything else down here as they will all be up north and it won't interfere with anything else either.

A load of us got together and quaffed many a little drinkie last year - twas a lot of fun
Excellent so are you volunteering to organise it Greeneyes?
Edit: so potentially there's drinks in London, Kanga's duathlon and something in Epsom. It's like race season all over again.
I would possibly be up for this. Would have to check out the trains to Epsom as not a clue and wouldn't want to drive. I do like a drink or two.
Pirates don't lapse, they just go into retirement.
One of these days Greeny...

will have to let you know on that one as not sure what I'm doing but I'm tempted - is Helen doing it ? I know she did something like that one year.
Right I better think about organising this little soiree seeing as I seem to have volunteered
Erm, don't speak to Helen about it...Trogs is a better oracle
Now...beer?
Did she fall in then HC ??
