I was at the Hillish and Hellish 10 at Looe this morning, me and Flowerpower were wearing pirate kit snd a guy came up and asked us if we were the pirates from that book , turns out Mr Holgs book has inspired him to enter the Marizion half then go for an Ironman later (prob IM Wales) in the year . Good work Holgs good work ( must get the second one soon)

It is - I've read it! Good, too
Well done on the race Max
Nice story as well.
Just remimded me of something that happend a few months ago!
I have a colleague, from one of our other offices, who is working in my office a couple of days a week. We got talking one day when he was using a desk close to mine. It was then that I found out he is training for Outlaw this year. I mentioned that I took part last year & I opened a photo of me approaching the finish line. His reaction! "Oh you're a Pirate!!"
When I asked him how he new about us he said "I've read Andy Holgate's book"!
I can confirm that he has & has read book 2 as well!
RBM - you didn't skip to the last paragraph of that chapter like he told you to then?!
Sorry I made you cry Max
