Don't panic Stavros, my caravan has the beer, my front room has all the boats (must remeber to put them in the car) the national grid is busy mass charging all the batts, have tested all the steam plants--we really are now cooking

Have had a word with my local suppliers of everything fire proof and I am afraid I have drawn a blank on fireproof shreddies any suggestions.Will I need that 42inch fishing net to catch those straight runners.

Oh by the way Phil forgot to tell you I was NEVER any good in goal.Maybee it was something to do with the cash the other teams paid me to let the ball into the back of the net

OK Stavros I'll pay you in beer to catch the boat, payment after wards of course as I have tried beer before, and there is nothing worse that seeing three boats coming at you and catching the wrong one :'(!!

...best excuse for wanting a medal!

Since I cannot make it to the show, and since I've already taken a real shine to those medals, the only other option is to try and come up with a good excuse.
So, my excuse for wanting a Mayhem medal is...

<Think, think...>

...

...

<More think, think...>

...

<Three hours later...>

...

Nope, the only excuse I can think of this (see pic).
Now if I glued a Mayhem medal on the body, it means my chances of........ Put it this way, when they see that medal there, all the wimmin will be like: "Oooh, look at that PMK -- he's got a Mayhem medal! Let's rip his clothes off!",

Seriously, I know this is a bit of a long shot, but if by some small chance you end up with a spare one, would you consider selling it to this yokel?

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Bitterly disappointed. :'(
I'm picking my 'Lilly' the Spaniel up from my sisters in Somerset tomorrow :) (She's the one with the white sock.) I then have to introduce her to Shelly (Heinz 57) and would have had to bring both to the show. (Lilly yet to have her inoculations)
My Dad - most inconsiderately

is in Spain sunning himself with my sister and brother in law, and my son's college decided to send him on his work placement! So I'm the doggy sitter.
I would have enjoyed meeting you guys, as of to date it's all been long distance communication - albeit 'excellent communication' :)

regards
Gary

Please don't sell a medal to PMK, the thought of him having his cloths ripped off makes me feel bad

SteamboatPhil · « **Reply #271 on:** May 22, 2008, 10:11:56 pm »

OK the land rover is full, the roof rack is full and the caravan is making strange groaning sounds, could be one too many boats or one too many beers (in the van not me---yet)
So I think I'm ready...............
Let the fun begin

Stavros · « **Reply #272 on:** May 22, 2008, 10:25:20 pm »
