Eugh... chocolate... None of the above!

Ok, that's just me and my weird allergies... But deffo not Minstrels, but some proper colour on it

hunnymonster · 26-05-2009 12:07PM

minstrels on my slice please.;)

The guy who fixes my bike is calling to our place this evening. This guy is a legend and I really want to keep him on-side so we have cheesecake, eclairs and home-made bread, all baked from scratch at 6am this morning! Zuppylurk doesn't get looked after as well as the bike guy, actually if it ever came down to a choice between the two it could be very close.

MCOS · 26-05-2009 12:14PM

Minstrels all the way! and... are you single

Finished College tonight WOOHOO!!!

Just finishing off the work tonight I think but there will more than likely be cake, something stronger for sure later in the week

On antbiotics right now though so I'll be taking it easy*.

All the talk of cider drove me to buy a flagan of devils bit cider last night. Use to drink that muck when I was a young hooligan. Long story short it's fecking jungle juice, was sleep walking and everything last night.

hope you kept a log and was it Tempo stuff or just lsw?

McConkey · 26-05-2009 01:06PM

Stop yer making me hungry......chocolate....minstrels....

So Tantipie and Munstergal, yer in Dublin on Monday too....who else is heading up? I don't know if I am staying around yet.....these boats in Galway might be fun, I haven't gone in to check it out yet, though I think I might be bold on Saturday night and head in for a look

Munster_Gal · 26-05-2009 01:17PM

We're not staying up either but might hang around for a bit and see what the craic is.

Tantipie there's gonna be no crossing the line after 5pm. I'll drag ya across it in the 70mins if I have to

Note to self.... put in a call to the Ambulance on duty for graze marks on Tantipie after dragging her!! And maybe the hairdresser for any bald patches that might occur

Rusty Cogs 08 · 26-05-2009 02:14PM

Heading off to Barcelona in the morning for the rest of the week. Does anyone know of runs in the city centre(ish) ?

Peterx · 26-05-2009 02:36PM

Was there a few months ago and ran from the hotel (top of la ramblas) over through streets to the parklands and sites of the Olympic venue. Lovely running with some views and some stadia to gawk at along the way.
There looked to be nice running along by the waterside as well but there was a place in the queue for the Familla with my name on it waiting for me so had to cut the run short.
There's a Decathlon store visible on the left hand sidestreet as you are walking down la Ramblas by the way. Loads of bargains.

Bally8 · 26-05-2009 03:30PM

Booked our flights today to Vegas for my wedding in April 2010. Woohoo!!

hunnymonster · 26-05-2009 03:45PM

that deserves something a bit more than a Whoohoo. We've booked flights to go look at a potential venue for a some time next year for our wedding.... indecisive me? not much :-)

Hey Hunnymonster! What's required for a potential venue? Does there have to be a marathon or swim involved or just some nice rolling countryside with warm weather and nice trails?
I took in a World Cross Country Championship during my honeymoon. She didn't seem to mind.

tantipie · 26-05-2009 04:28PM

wat if bally8 and hunnymonster just married each other,,with the recession and all would save ye a fortune:D

He wants Comrades ultramarathon for a honeymoon, I want primal quest..... it's an ongoing negotiation :-)

We'll just have to wait and see who wears the pants so.

Enduro · 26-05-2009 09:05PM

No loosers there!

But personally, I'd go for PQ

The wedding and honeymoon is all about the bride. Thus, it's PQ for you two.

Enduro · 26-05-2009 10:03PM

But the problem with PQ is that you'll be spending your honeymoon in very very very close proximity to 2 other people for 8 or nine days (choose your bestman and chief bridesmaid very very carefully

)

What, you mean like this

Or more like this?

osnola ibax · 28-05-2009 02:04AM

That's the one, that's the one! Cheers amadeus. It's not quite as satisfying as when the 'pool turned them over in OT (Rooney and SAF were mouthin off before that game) but has certainly put a smile on my face. I don't think anyone could have lived with barca tonight, wow. I feel half sorry for john o shea cause every paper in uk and ireland had a two page write up on him at some stage during last week, and all because they hang on SAF's every word. Anyway that's the press for ya fickle as hell but johno is a good player.

RacoonQueen · 28-05-2009 10:25AM

That's a pretty picture. Cheered me up this morning.
