Yes it is Monday, though it is very early on the Monday.

Perhaps a little patience is in order.

Perhaps someone on the classifieds has 'a life' for sale.

;o)

There doesnt seem to be any lifes listed in the classifieds and having already looked on ebay they seem overpriced.

Its Monday now so the word should be starting to get out.

"The word" will get out when me and Dave finish our finely crafted press release in our usual style.

Here's one from back in the day:-

[i]Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2000 21:06:23 +0000
Subject: PRO VISION TO SPONSOR CONDORS in 2001
From: "DAVE LOUGHRAN " <planetx@globalnet.co.uk>
X-RCPT-TO: <brant@on-one.co.uk>

PRO VISION SPONSOR CONDORS !!!!!!

When Steve Joughin recently told his marketing consultant Brant Richards of Shedfire marketing that he wanted to sponsor "Condors" in the year 2001 Richards immediately set the wheels in motion.

So when Joughin received his letter from Chester Zoo congratulating him on his support of the condor enclosure there he was somewhat mystified - Joughin was of course hoping to sponsor the succesful London cycle dealer Condor cycles.

Shedfire also handle the business of etailer on-one who recently launched their innovative sponsorship program - after being inundated by dirt jumpers requesting sponsorship, Richards instead sponsored the monkey enclosure at Chester Zoo.

Joughin said ; "I know I am a useless at this marketing thing, but that Richards doesn't know his arse from his elbow "

What? Again? I thought I'd "sold out" at various stages of my career so far.

I've not been to bike biz for a while. All the articles seem to be laden with satirical innuendo.

A statement with a question mark, very poor even for you Hora.

He is still alive and living in the UAE.

has it dawned on any of you to actually check the On-One website?

They've been bought up by Marin, obvious when you think about it really, all those beards eh!

There is, yes.

Just spent the morning driving to Mytholmroyd and back. My daughter is meant to be doing work experience at a local school. She'd forgotten some form or other, so we turned about about a mile from it, and drove back home. Turned around again to drive back, only to get there and find the school was closed all along!

1.5hrs driving - I can nearly get to Portsmouth in that time!

"Portsmouth" - aha, there's the clue. Brant is going to THAT Portsmouth, not Portsmouth in Calderdale. It's the launch of the On One Navy....
