'Walk for Life' Potters Fields Park, June 1st 2008

[Sprog]

sprog you seem to know the underground better than me so when we meet up i will let you lead the way, lol

Lol it's easy, don't worry. We'll just grab the Nothern Line southbound from Euston to Waterloo

[English Poweriser]

I read that the teams will be let off soley as teams or something, so you can't just arrive as a team and go, ours will be assigned a time or something, does anyone know anything about that?

[Sprog]

Yep, we'll all have our own times, so we simply wait around until the last person in the team is allowed to set off, and all go in one big bunch. Now it's just gotta stop RAINING!

[Athoul]

Currently the weather is looking pretty good, Sunny intervals, 20 degrees and a gentle breeze of 6mph:

Although the BBC is very unreliable and change their mind all the time

[bmthbloke]

As for going off times. it works like this. There are colour coded groups. when you sign up you recieve a colour coded wrist band. The groups are then sent off at timed intervals

[English Poweriser]

Ooh, okie. That makes sense. I misread it as teams get a specific time slot, and go off then. I suppose their way is easier.
And I got my route-map thingie, a few minutes after I sent an email to them asking them to send me something via email. They did as well. : D
Oh, and I also got my let and wrist protection, so, my legs should be safe throughout the journey. >D

[bmthbloke]

What I would advice ( and for every1) is to take a few things to prevent/limit chaffing.

Came home to me tonite as i tried my new stilts. Im going to take a couple of hankies  and small foam blocks  to push in place if I find bindings or straps start rubbing. A spare pair of sox would do

ALSO WARNING FOR THE YOUNG AND PRETTY

be aware you may get 'hit apon', please take it in the spirit it will be ment --and consider it a complement

Tho obviously DK and Jason will need to be very heavilly gusseted -and may even need minders

[English Poweriser]

Yesh, I'm going to bring a bad along, with a few bottles of water (I love drinking water, despite the fact I haven't ever finished one bottle yet while bocking).
The only problem I see now would be my feet hurting when I finish, but last time that happened was because I was standing around a lot talking to people on the street, raising awareness of Walk for life. xD Some  woman came up and was like "What are those?" and I told her and gave her a slip of paper I had printed, saying the website name etc, then two other random women came up saying "I don't know what it is you're handing out, but I want one." xD Amazing the power of bocks have. : D

I always do but that's a good idea !?
I don't mind Jelly and Gixer being my minders 

[Locky]

I hate it but there is almost no chance of the welshies coming to this

My stilts are busted and we have several people injured that cant bock at the moment and the ones that do have stilts, dont have the money to get us there.

Really sorry jelly and everyone else. I was so looking forward to this.

[ricc]
