Bank Holiday Weekend

[badger]

Tee Hee. I was also holding it in for that very reason (and then they bloomin well closed the loos up by the main stage - drats). I am *ashamed* to say I was quite taken with Mr Josh Klinghoffer :-$ and Mr Reznor ;-)

Oh dear - am likely to be disowned by the rainbow drinks crowd for that comment. Ah well.

Tillie, I popped down to Dulwich Park yesterday with my little boy and could not find you. We were there around 3. Had you gone to the Dog by then?

What a shame we didnt bump into each other Ed. I was there until after 4pm. I'll be a bit more precise the next time regarding location. Hope you had fun anyway.

it was in may i did it and it was hell but got round in 54 mins so pleased enough. the only running i have done for the last week was to the bar as i have just spent a fantastic week in the lovely town of st valery sur somme in picardy,very highly recommended and only 70 miles down the coast from calais so easily reached but a world away from ed and the smoke.

Sounds good to me!

Went there last summer to find my great grandpas grave. Amazing place!

[spadetownboy]

certainly is tt,the place has history coming out of its pores,i,ll definately be back most likely for the easter break. by the way did you find the grave, i did take a walk throught the local graveyard looking for the war graves of which there were quite a few from ww1 and ww2, always like to pay my respects whenever im in northern france/belgium,call it morbid facination or a sense of duty to those who died for our freedom i dont know, but if your great grandfather is one of the fallen in st valery cemetery then he had an unknown irishman stop last week and spare a thought for him.

Thanks for that Spadetownboy. That was quite a touching thing to say. Unfortunately didnt find his grave but will definately be going back again now I have done some more research. I think morbid fascination and sense of duty and respect go hand in hand in those situations.
