HMS Endurance? Careful what you say old boy, that Rear Admiral 'Polaris' McBroadside chap still drinks in the snug of the B&L. Rarely a day goes by when he doesn't mention his Union Jack and 'those thieving fkers'.

Had a mare of journey from Newcastle to Heathrow tonight, apparently this is not the week one should be travelling with a boxed archery bow / arrows / target / blow pipe / darts - all plastic i add (for a team building event) - it makes airport security, arm d personnel, shop assistants, flight attendants and other passengers quite nervous!

Searched 5 times,, xrayed 3 times, and asked about it countless times

On the plus side I ended up with no one around me on the flight lol

How did you get past TT security with those items listed ?

Battert is the best security operative I know.

Unable to pacify the alarm on a car I was transporting on the truck last evening I was obliged to drive along with the truck's window open repeatedly pressing the open button on the car's remote key fob.

I must have looked a proper nana.

No change there then.

It's rare for an immobiliser/alarm system to be quite so sensitive. With the truck in motion, the car would lock itself and almost immediately the alarm would go off. It was pretty damn tedious I can tell you. Broken? Badly set? Dunno.

I recall the incident, I believe Pushfit has refrained from Sex On The Beach from that day to this.

Anyhow, off into town this morning to get a few bits and bobs for the holiday. We're not going until Sunday, but it's silly to leave these things until the last minute. Apparently.

Is it to prevent you from trying to reprint the ticket?

It's fraud Luci. Don't get involved. What event is it? I may be in the market for a cheap ticket.

With the demise if the guvnor's spare parts scheme the Hungarian car dismantler has been promoted to No.2 driver. Much of his day is spent ferrying me to jobs in his car. He's a lovely chap but I have found I have a limired capacity for Hungarian Hard Rock.

Out in the wilds of the Yukon
Out on the Great Divide
Where boys are boys
And men are men
And reckless youths go Solo
On Ace, King, Queen, Jack, ten.

I did think that it was to prevent multi ticket printing but still not sure how they can delete it from my inbox.

Ticket is for the naked half marathon on Brighton beach......yikes

Everyone (with the possible exception of you) gave me grief when I used little boy pages. The advantage of shorter pages is stuff is easier to find.

I may revert to les pages de petits garçons.

It also loads faster and confirms the feeling that one is part of something epic!
