    I’m in Coppull (5 mins form Junkyard)

    I need to work on the ‘pass out’ yet

    The racing bit was associated with my karting days, and has absolutely nothing to do with biking. as will become blatantly obvious if I get allowed out.

    I only live a couple of miles from the visitors centre and would love to come but dont know whether Ill be about that early as I may be going to a gig on Saturday night.

    If I do get up early, can I come?

    It would appear that I don’t have as many ‘Brownie points’ in the bank as I first thought.

    The phrase ‘Do what the hell you like, I look after our kids’ doesn’t seem to mean what it says?

    Maybe next time, Looks like it’s Rivvy for me in the morning.

    Have a good ride lads and bring back some piccies

    Its a brave man who dares to follow the instruction “do what the hell you like” mate.

    See you on the next one.

    just come and glibly quote it back to her and then go for a long soak in the bath. Then go to sleep on the couch … for the next few days

    Count me out. Barnes can run the ride according to his principles. Have fun boys.

    sulky ? Principles ? I fear I may have none….
    Listen, I wasn’t intending to hijack the ride – if anyone objects to my presence I can stay home 🙁 I was looking forward to having someone else lead the way

    By way of explanation for 3rd parties, fagus seems to be under the impression I have excluded him from riding with the Bog Trotters. I don’t know why he thinks this, and he declines to provide corroboration. Perhaps it’s just that I smell ?

    The spectre of barnes will haunt this ride if you are there or not. You’ve crapped on me once before, you won’t do it again. I always suspected that you would turn up, read you like a book.

    I don’t even know what this means

    You’ve crapped on me once before, you won’t do it again

    well, if you won’t allow me to apologise then I don’t know what I can do 🙁

    If I can poison a ride just by expressing an interest in joining it, I must be evil incarnate 🙁
