Tour Shirts

Gentlemen

As per my previous blog a while back, monies owed for the Tour T Shirts is £25, while I apologise for the amount you will appreciate the actual costs which our kind sponsors contributed considerably.

This money needs paying asap to Steve Hopley, Vince or myself, failure to pay will result in for-fitting your place on the 2012 tour so prompt payment would be appreciated.

great ride today, will get some pics sorted tomorrow

Catch you all later

Stuart and Tarmac and Fred paid their £25 on Sat 20th to Steve Hopley so thanks lads for paying promtly

Tour Shirts

Gentlemen

Matt Focker has received the invoice for the shirts which is considerably more than originally thought, need to check what we are being charged for however it is looking like we will have some moneys to pay to settle the bill which in all fairness I have always said, once I have vetted the invoice and spoken to Trevor I will have a definitive amount, chances are its going to be a little more than thought.

on a brighter note for those who have not yet looked follow the links below

onefortheditch Arran tour 2011


It was a close run competition but there had to be only one winner in 2011 Arrans got talent and that had to go to Baz with his impression of the Holy Island in the background.Baz explained that it has taken many years to perfect this feat.

Ah'm no drunk, Hic!

Ah'm no drunk, Hic!

Lead kindly torch, 
amid the encircling gloom.
 
Old Homers jist left the booser,
 
but he canny find his room.
 

The nicht is dark an’ fuzzy,
 
an’ old homers lost his bike.
 
An’ he canny ride wi’ oot it,
 
an his kilts too bleedin tight.

You take the wide waist, i"ll take the thin waist and i"ll be in Scotland afore ye.

Further accusations are now coming to light that a certain member has purchased a kilt which is several sizes to large to allow for expansion on tour. yes expansion on a cycling tour, i ask you gentlemen which is the most finable offence, a kilt slightly too small or one that is several sizes to large. what sort of atheletes are we???,
