Who is going to the Loton training day??

blackx · 9 Mar 2003, 20:29 (Ref:530550)

OK guys 'n' gals...
If anyone from here is going to the training day @ Loton Park the let us all know..
I have worked out who one or two of you are but maybe I know more of you than I think..
suppose we will have to have one leg tucked in our socks and one out as I believe that to be our version of the Masons Secret handshake.....

Stuart Hill · 9 Mar 2003, 20:53 (Ref:530568)

Well Blackie, that was the idea........ but only Woolley, Harry and myself adopted the "sock thing" at Mallory !
As we already knew each other it wasn't much of a secret sign !!

Maybe more luck at Loton :confused:

Although I wasn`t there I can assure you guys that I was wearing me trousers in the prescribed fashion...felt a bit of a prat in the pub though!!

But seriously, to answer the question I will be there with the unit to see if I can still drop off to sleep at a moments notice after the winter layoff.

No!! he was doing the feeling !!

Stu and Woolley, you two were obviously there in the pub with me...what were you disguised as?....

**Woolley** · 11 Mar 2003, 18:21 (Ref:532983)

It wasn't us, we were somewhere else. Who did you see disguised as what that you thought was us?

You may need to read that sentence several times, but I'm sure it does make sense. Eventually.

Do you know...I think it was actually three other people and nothing to do with us....oeer ! now i`m confused!!!

Stuart Hill · 11 Mar 2003, 18:49 (Ref:533048)

oh well, nothing new there then Gizmo !!

**Woolley** · 11 Mar 2003, 23:08 (Ref:533331)

This is worrying. I thought that when Rescue turned up and asked the driver if he knew where he was, it was to test his mental state. I never realized it was because they didn't know where they were!

For your assistance, Loton is near Shrewsbury, the Rescue Unit is the big white van, and anyone you meet in a pub isn't us.

Look forward to seeing you there. Are there really only 3 of us going?

Stuart Hill · 12 Mar 2003, 17:26 (Ref:534029)

4 !!! 'arry will be there!

Gizmo · 12 Mar 2003, 18:22 (Ref:534091)

I thought the big white can was where you eat burgers, bacon and sossidge butties, doughnuts and drink tea and stuff?.......ok you got me with that one!!

Pike · 13 Mar 2003, 19:22 (Ref:535315)

I`ll be there too. I aint marshalling with `Arry though after Sunday!!!

Stuart Hill · 13 Mar 2003, 20:20 (Ref:535387)

How can you say that Pike, after the hospitality Harry showed you on Saturday???? He is most hurt!!

**Woolley** · 13 Mar 2003, 22:05 (Ref:535470)

His first post and he chooses to attack some poor unfortunate fellow 10-10ther, and after they'd shared a room for the night...

I must say, I did wonder why Harry had to get dressed again on Sunday morning!!

Pike · 14 Mar 2003, 16:10 (Ref:536187)

Tell Harry I am really sorry and I will buy him a pint next time I see him or a banana - whichever he would prefer. It took ages to undo those overalls on Saturday night

Logrence · 18 Mar 2003, 11:31 (Ref:539983)

Is it still possible to sign up for this training day business next Sunday? Rang the number on the website for Loton but there doesn't appear to be anyone in...

I've just left a message with the organser to call me. Will pm you later with his answer. Should be ok as they are always after new blood.

Great, cheers

neilwaynesmith · 18 Mar 2003, 13:12 (Ref:540081)

Have 'volunteered' for the training day, as a novice to speed/hill climb events please can someone tell me if they send out tickets/details for this training day? or do you just turn up?

Stuart Hill · 18 Mar 2003, 13:30 (Ref:540091)

Ok guys, here are the answers......

if you have already volunteered, the details are currently en-route by snail mail.

if you still want to volunteer, let me know and I'll pm you the email address of the club secretary who will email you a copy of the details.

To anyone else looking at joining us, there is still room.

But don't forget, Loton is not just for training!!! It is a fabulous hill run by a very organised and marshal-friendly club !!

See you all there.

Stuart Hill · 18 Mar 2003, 13:35 (Ref:540097)

Loton Park

Stuart Hill · 18 Mar 2003, 18:08 (Ref:540338)
