But in all seriousness, this is a great weekend and a great way to meet other Pirates - and as an added bonus Gastank won't be there this year as he getting married or some other poor excuse!
Count me and slower in. Only one of us on the station at a time as we will relay the ankle biters
Muffin, Mrs Stanners may well come over and help out with our 2 little ladies, it has only been 10 years after all (doing Silent Assassin's DIY half to celebrate on our anniversary)
There will be plenty of things to distract you, cheer you up and generally keep you going at the Pirate Feed station - that's why we're the best feed station!!
If Mrs Matt could be persuaded to help out, would there be an option for her to watch me swim, then help out whilst i was on teh bike and be finished in time to shout abuse at me while I run/walk/crawl to the end?
7755Matt - of course, but it helps if this is known at outset. As I said in an earlier post, we need a quorum of people to help set up the feed station, then more hands on deck as the cyclists are actually on the route
I have provisional permission providing nothing family wise crops up i would be up for the big swim can someone please stick me on the list if i am there more than happy to give Jo and Jordy and anyone else who can fit in a lift
Count me in!! Got a work colleague doing it this year, so I can hurl abuse at him (I'm kidding)!!

Still working out logistics and if we can move other other stuff around before we commit
Thank you to all those volunteers so far, im sure we'll have a fab time this year.
Every year we've had fantastic comments from OSB and the other athletes, its great to give something back to the sport.
I dont have much time to post at the moment as hyper busy at work but hoping that will change soon.

that may distract too many of the lady cyclists
That's the plan. Something to distract me from the suffering.

Nice one Max ... another one for the Big Swim show down
Yes but why deny anyone else the chance to whoop his arse
Well if that doesnt motivate you nothing will !!
How far is it anyway .. 3k?
ask schmunkee............I think it was 5 metres last year
It was at least 7 metres
Lol
Last year they had 3 distances 1.5k, 3k and 5k, if your going to have a smack down it really should be the 5k
