Some More Sponsored Miles
December 5, 2009 – 10:39 pmSince the crew have finished we’ve had a few more sponsored miles come in, so I thought it was worth a post to say thankyou to the most recent kind donors. Where you didn’t specify a mile I chose one for you.
- Andrew Jackson, miles 200-209, covered on Day 4.
- Chris’ Great Aunt Anne, mile 400, covered on Day 14. £10 donated to the boys as they finished on day 189 (I think she had a bet on with a friend about them finishing before day 190).
- Pete, Clare, Phoebe and Ben Sheppard, miles 500-504, covered on Day 15. Shep (Pete) and Clare are friends of Chris’ from Molesey. Shep used to coach Chris.
- Penny Davies, miles 1500-1505, covered on Day 51.
- Elly Besley, mile 1206, covered on Day 38, and miles 1600-1601, covered on Day 53.
- Havrehed Christian, mile 3700, covered on Day 131.
- Shannon Geis, miles 4200-4201, covered on Day 148.
- And finally Andrew James, miles 4600-4602, covered on Day 169.
Thanks again everyone.
If you’re still interested in donating towards the charities then please see the donations page for instructions.
Hope to see some of you at Mick’s tomorrow. I’ll continue to nag Chris to put a post up here sometime soon! In the mean time do email him and pester him too: chris@goldengateendeavour.com.

Hellooo…. Helloooo…..
This blog is starting to echo now everybody has left!
By Biff on Dec 9, 2009
Clearly not everyone has left. But if class 5 have left, are we now - finally - allowed to tell the joke about the big brown bear?
By george.simpson on Dec 9, 2009
Do tell George.
How about the joke about the pig sabre?
By Boing Boing on Dec 9, 2009
is a pig sabre similar to a cow bayonet?

Once there was this hunter, out in the forest, hunting bears.
As the hunter approached a clearing in the forest, he saw a bear. One of the biggest bears he’d ever seen. So he crouches down behind a largish rock, takes careful aim with his shotgun, and fires. After the smoke clears, he runs down to the clearing, and the bear’s body is gone!
He searches the clearing, but to no avail. Then there’s a tap-tap-tap on his shoulder. The hunter looks around, and it’s the bear! “You just tried to kill me, didn’t you?”. Says the bear. “Uh, no. No I didn’t”. The hunter, taken aback by a talking bear, lies. “Yes you did. Don’t lie, or I’ll rip your arms off” “Uh, yeah, yeah I did.” “Alright”, says, the bear, “I’ll let you go if you do one thing for me.” “What’s that?”, inquires the hunter. “Give me a blowjob.” “What??” “On your knees” So, the hunter obliges, and leaves the clearing.

Well, the hunter’s not a happy chappy. “Humiliated by a bear!” he thinks to himself. “I’ll teach that bloody bear”. He runs to the local town, and buys an Uzi sub-machine gun, and runs back to the clearing. The bear is still there, basking in the sun. “I’ve got you now, bear”, the hunter says to himself, and opens fire from behind the rock.
Again, after the smoke clears, the hunter runs down to the clearing. No bear. Tap-tap-tap on his shoulder. Gulp. “You just tried to kill me again, didn’t you?” says the bear. “Uh, no. No I didn’t”, lies the hunter. “Yes you did. Don’t lie, or I’ll rip your legs off” “Ok! I did.” “Alright”, says, the bear, “I’ll let you go if you do one thing for me.” “What’s that?” inquires the hunter. “Drop your pants and bend over” “No way!” “Ok. Prepare to get your legs ripped off.” “Alright! I’ll do it.” So, the hunter obliges, and leaves the clearing, walking rather gingerly.

“I’ll get the bugger this time”, the hunter thinks to himself, and buys a rocket launcher. He runs back to the clearing, and blasts everything into oblivion. Trees are on fire, rocks are broken, the ground is scorched. Again, after the smoke clears, the hunter runs down to the clearing. No bear.
Tap-tap-tap on his shoulder. Gulp. “You’re not here for the hunting, are you?”

BUSTED!!!

You should be ashamed of yourself Laser.Beam - if that is your real name.

The joy of changing user names at will is just wonderful.

Last weekend John Hanafin and I got banned from the shittiest pub/club in Lagos.
To get banned from the biggest hovel in Lagos, which waas voted in a CNN poll as the worst city in the world is an outstanding accomplishment - that’s up there with rowing the pacific (isn’t it?)
Ex-military hearts will be bursting with pride everywhere!!

Well, I’m a civvy, but was working at RNAS Culdrose the dark and stormy night that Lady Street was closed down. I too was thrown out, and barred, for attempting to steal a chair.
By george.simpson on Dec 10, 2009
that’s a reasonable attempt for a damp-eyed, nappy-wearing, nancy-boy civvie.
Any others up there with a hall of fame?
