Will the 'cake lady' be there? <excited too>

not looking forward to the drive down from leeds tho.
save me some summer strength beer. 😀
No beer for you I'm afraid Ton. You've bin mean and nasty to me recently so I've had you banned from the beer tent. 😐
The ban could be lifted if I were to be promised pints though....
i suppose i could stretch to buying you half a shandy........... 😉
Q: i'm in the area with bikes and my son visiting relatives. Can I get a day pass? Email in profile.
Can't wait. Haven't raced for 9 years, so I expect to be bottom of the feild in everything I enter. Still, the beer tent should cheer me up!
and ton is coming :'(
:'(
ban this filth :'(
Aren't you coming then juan?
Ton will win then 'travelled furthest to get here' prize if you don't.
(Ton, make sure [s]you remind Nick of this[/s] get someone else to ask Nick about this so he doesn't fob you off with some underpants or something.)
Hi Guys - No-one is banned from the beer tent - we have 12 barrels to get through!
Just to let you know, the touch of drizzle we have this afternoon has dampened down the dust beautifully for the sunshine tomorrow!!

???? was that today???
Yep! At 3pm we had 2 lake jumps. 1 was the lake and the other was the rest of the site. All drying nicely for some great riding over the weekend though and at least the tent pegs might go in the ground this year
😯
No-one is banned from the beer tent

Driving down with family from Shropshire first thing Saturday morning. Looking forward to it 🙂
Spectating only for me this year..
OH coming along too....
Shes driving...
Couple of beers then...
Are we on some sort of look out for each other?
Whose going to wear the red rose in thier lapel or carry a copy of the Telegraph under thier right arm or carry a copy of the lastest "pies monthly" magazine, or get this a copy of STW...hehehee??
We had planned to come down but with the weather we're not so sure (don't mind a bit of rain myself but it's no fun with 2 babies in tow) hopefully those on the scene already can keep us updated on the weather today??
Got to load the car, take the dog to the in laws then try not to set off from Portsmouth too early!
Weather is looking nice for the weekend btw, Pompy is certaintl blue skied & sunny at present.
It's bloomin loverly in Sotty too..
the sun is out, its gonna be a beautifull weekend........in the beer tent!
car packed & ready to set off from Cornwall - clear blue skies down here 'moi ansome' 😀
Woohoo! Sun's out, clear blue skies here in That London. Hope I can bring them wih me...
I'm actually now a little bit too excited and may need Valium before much longer.
Can we have a bike jumble there ..if some of the proceeds got to the charity...?
Why you is think of this great idea now? 😐
cos I is a bit slow init.. 🙄
It is a great idea though, and no reason why it can't be incorporated for future events.
I'll make sure there's a 'contact us' section added to the website, and remind us next week and we'll pencil it in for ideas for next year.
About to pack the car!!.
Pete just pack loads of things I might need just in case please.
It is sunny on site!!!
Packing the car now - I thought camping was something you could strike out on one back but Mrs Stuey Thinks I'm Johnny Weissmuller and a train of ivory mules - may not get there 'early'.
car is packed , waiting for kids to get ready......... 🙄
Bon chance all my Bullheart brothers - I'd be there if I wasn't working on another (inferior) event.
Take care - hope to be racing with you again soon. Anyone racing at Oktoberfest?
How's the weather looking tonight? And am I too late to buy tickets??
BBB2012 - Date announced already!!!
18th / 19th August 2012
Happy days. 😀
can you book the same weather for next year too please?
Might change Saturday morning weather a bit as it drizzled.
This year I booked the entire months rainfall for the Thursday before the event to get it out of the way.
I didn't fully think it through as it washed away the run in for the lake jump and flooded the centre of Bournemouth.
I think I have to be more careful releasing butterflies in Beijing square.
