Re: Thrudball 2013: 10th-11th August, Bognor Regis
a few pics of our accident on the way up to Crumb-bowl...
as we pulled in from the fast lane to get out the way of the merc up our arse, a car in the slow lane pulled into the same space we wanted, not seeing us. Wayne could only avoid him by sending his GIRLFRIENDS cars arse to the left, sending us back towards the merc, who not surprisingly sped up. Wayne avoided him by swinging the arse end out to the right, then accelerated away from the fast approaching barrier, then we watched a Hulking great black truck bunny hop and just miss us as its ABS smacked its breaks, wayne sent us sideways again to miss the truck, straightened up just in time to smash through a sign, ride up the embankment and then gentle flip us over.
Skidmarks (not the ones in our pants!)
You can see why we flipped over
We are both happy to be alive...but that is (was) his GIRLFRIENDS Car
Hospital? NO PUB!
Tattoo on Waynes neck says says "Wild and Reckless", but he's anything but...he saved our bacon!
Thanks also to Lunchmoney for the sedate lift from the wreckers yard to the Hall (didn't know Imprezas could accelerate that fast!)

He means accelerate that slow! Slowly. There was no extreme speeding on the way from the yard to the hall. It was too hot and I had a car full of people and luggageSpiky wrote:That's a little bit harsh of Al just after the accident!Giraffe wrote: Thanks also to Lunchmoney for the sedate lift from the wreckers yard to the Hall (didn't know Imprezas could accelerate that fast!)
Was just happy to help out.

Wow, you guys were lucky to walk away unscathed.
Right. Who fancies a free trip to Thrudbowl?
Valen can't make it, real life has conspired against him. So he's offering up his ticket and hotel room to anyone who wants it.
The only thing is, Ruth and I are traveling down on the Friday and returning on the Monday because it's a 5 hour drive for us.
Anyway, anyone interested, let us know via PM please.

Team changes might cost you your 3 free assistant coaches as of next week, but that. Suppose as long as i have your change by 02/08/13 I can let you keep the bonus.
I suppose though this means EVERYONE is going to want to change their blummin teams...
bah, humbug!

So for the purposes of bonus coachs and cheerleaders do I count as an international player ?
I am coming from foreign soil to play and then returning to said foreign soil after all.

Interplanetary is probably more accurate in your case......
