I’m still planning on meeting you at the start of the Ashworth Road climb around 6.30ish. Considering I struggled to get out of bed before 8am this morning it should prove an interesting challenge. I’ll text if I’m going to be late or whatever. If I’m not there don’t hang about though, I’ll catch you up.
I have it on good authority that Mrs binners may even have some refreshments on hand half way up the Rake.
You say that, but the above picture could be startlingly accurate. We’ve a fridge full of pork pies after getting more than a tad carried away with the pastry products order on Saturday.
Not the Smoked Ham and Cheese Pie I hope. That was so awesome that it will stop me dead in my tracks. I felt as sick as a pike yesterday because I ate too much pie and cheese.
The only food that I will be taking on mid-Rake will be Tangfastic delivered by a catapult.
Thats my mate Al who cooked the Smoked Ham and Cheese Pies for Saturday night. His pies are a thing of beauty and wonder. He does an awesome takes-no-prisoners Tasty Lancs and Chilli pie too. Mmmmmmmmm……. pie…….
