General Chat

Jean, just being with us joining in. We need your support love. Can you shout loud, as it's going to be very noisy with us lot about.
NO Stephen Jean cannot crack the whip, bless her,she's still getting her health back. And so is our Rita, they can be our refreshment girls. And they can bring us nice cool towels to cool us down in the heat.

The flowers sound lovely Madeleine, but will they be o.k in the heat. All the colours of the Union Jack. Thats if Stephen has no objections to the U.J.

Madeleine,

My voice is very distinctive and I have 'voiced over' a number of Scottish productions for different things.

A number of people say it is very much like Sean Connerys, I don't think so myself, but then I suppose hearing ourself is like looking at ourself on film...we don't really recognise ourself at all.

Folk that haven't seen me for many years recognise my voice instantly.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing......I wonder.

Stephen

Mo,

The Union Flag.....no objection.....I served the colours for 15 years.

But it is a Commonwealth Games so I will be wearing St.Andrews Cross knickers....LOL

Blimey Shelly, are you going to be fit for the games. Shall I send the physio round to you, he tall dark and handsome, he used to be a fireman, so he's got all his certificates.
He's a certified nutter, just what we need.

pmsl

just google the flag and the unie one is the bleeding same as the union jack flag lol

and the St.Andrews Cross is white and blue same as the conish flag but insted of blue its black

Right Shelly, I am of for my baton twirling practise. My waistline is looking good, the hula hoop training is good for the waist don't ya know.
See you tommorrow night.

Hullo,

The Union Flag is ONLY called the Union 'Jack' when it is flown from the 'Jack' Staff on the front of a British ship.

Gosh! Am I full of useless information.

Back to the training, Pech, Pant, Pech, Pant.

(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)?

Tea, Coffee, Fruit Juice, High Fibre Cereals, Prunes, Brown Bread Toast, Iron Tablets,

A healthy breakfast for TEAM GR.

Already been out for my run and a couple of laps of the Trim Course.

The Full Moon is beginning to set and the Sun starting to rise.
Have FROST this morning so it is all sparkling on the grass and trees......lovely.

Phoned a friend in Morar last night....he is coming to join us.....Tom McLean.....daft as a brush.....he has rowed the Atlantic twice and has held the record for crossing the Atlantic in a VERY SMALL sailing boat....it was only the size of your bath tub.....about 6ft. So he is an obvious candidate for the Rowing and Sailing. That ok, Ladies?

Have booked everyone in for a day at a Health Spa tomorrow, Sunday. The full works. Including a Colonic Irrigation.

Can someone pop over to Delhi and check our accommodation, please. Don't want to have last minute hitches.

I know it's Saturday...but don't forget the training.

Have a good day ya all!.

Stephen

Just noticed!

It's FULL MOON time.

Do you think that has any connection with this new level of madness we have reached?

Stephen

Hi everybody, it's freezing today but I'll have to do a bit of training because I haven't been on a trampoline since I was at school. I need a partner for the badminton, don't think I can cope with singles, and can't enter doubles on my own. Hmm, wonder if the hunky physio wants to play...........badminton.

Is Dave entering any of the events or is he just flying the jet?

Looking forward to the spar tomorrow, don't need the colonic irrigation though - had a colonoscopy last week...........had pretty much the same effect.

Sorry I didn't add Bobby to our list of males, it's the kilt.........it confuses me.

Better go and add the new events, and the new man, to our list.


Edit: Forgot to say, practiced with my bow and arrows yesterday, killed a crow...........but it shouldn't have been sitting on the target!

Stephen

Oh my lord, I am just back from Dehli. Don't need the colonic irrigation Stephen, I caught Dehli Belly whilst I was there.
Well the hotel is beautiful, the rooms are all en-suite. There is a gym and sauna, a HUGE olympic size swimming pool.
I didn't go much on the food though, hence my dodgy belly.
If we take out own food we should be o.k.
But I pity our British Olympians their accomodation leaves a lot to be desired.
I think if they have showers, they will come out rust coloured. Yuk it is disgusting.
And the toilets, well, I just hope they don't get upset stomachs, or they will be running faster than they do in the 100mtr hurdles.

Maddie, we do have to be very careful what food we take. Don't forget the cow is a sacred animal out in India. Not that we could smuggle a cow in our knickers, oooh that sounds or smells fishy doesn't it.
If we wear hats we could smuggle things under them I suppose. And what about body belts, we could stuff things in them. If we wear bigger coats, they would hide a multitude of things.
What do you suggest.
