Food is always in my thoughts, is that helpful? <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Food for me too <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Do we have to be going to your bash to order food or will you just get it delivered anyway - just asking!!!!<img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Trust you two to post something in the wrong place and Milv you know the answer to your question/s so im not playing your game. I have very very very important stuff to do before bash and i cant be sidetracked by od'ers who should know better, tut tut!!!!!!!!

What important stuff Rourky? Am intrigued.

Oh very important TC very important

11 returns so far, come on the rest of you.

Oh and no snow yet, bummer!!!!!

But you now have a 'red warning' in place. The weatherman on Radio 4 was talking about 'horrendous conditions' this morning but all I could think was 'Yippee, snow on the Brecons'. Take care on the roads everyone, but let's hope that snow hangs around until we get there.

Yep I'm with you with that thought TC. Walking in the mountains when the snows down. I've got a big smile on my chops just thinking about it!

I like snow but my greatest fear is falling over and breaking something. I already have a dodgy sprain from the slightest of topples!!! It would appear I'm going to need my trusty poles! <img src='theme/emoticon_confused.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_evilgrin.png' />

Me to TC,Always wanted to walk in the snowy mountains but just hope we can all manage to get there safely if it is like it is now <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /> I for one hate driving in the snow <img src='theme/emoticon_unhappy.png' />

Loads of snow here, so you must have some by now Rourky.

Buddy, I cant eat a full breakfast....possibly a bacon butty.....ok for eating out at night tho...whats on the menu,apart from Dave"s "chops"

Good job its not this weekend.Colleague from work was going to Reasons this weekend to do a Sas type of challenge but believe your on lock down!

Beacons even!

Since when have you been all serious Rourky, and not wanted to join in with childish games - you getting all grown up on us are you? <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Hell, milv....always thought of you as the grown up in our group...<img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

Really? Never been more than 12 mentally MG! You should try it - its great!<img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Milv....we are only 10 mentally.....so that puts you as the grown up<img src='theme/emoticon_evilgrin.png' />

<img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' /><img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Never gunna grow up Milv as you should know, but no-ones told my body that yet.

And to all those above we have snow in the south approx 20cm but much more on Beacons. Im with Dave now though as love the prospect of walking knee deep in the stuff, its stunning.

Minty hope the spikes are working

Can not wait....me too love the thought of lots of snow....still need to get my spikes sorted.
Got quite a bit of snow here in Walsall,just might have to go out for a walk tonight <img src='theme/emoticon_grin.png' />

Still several of you to reply. Thankyou to those that have youre choices have been noted, look forward to seeing you all soon

Naughty boys & girls have now been individually emailed by me and head chef Al is back on the case. Gaviscon and Rennie may be required <img src='theme/emoticon_wink.png' />

Snow is still here but rain thats forcast will see an end to it except for high ground. Just hope it hangs around up there for a few weeks more.

I'll have the venison medallions please, Rourky

ALL BASH ATTENDERS

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT BOTH JANs & FEBs MENU are displayed on the pubs web site, can you please ensure you select from FEBs menu as several people have been caught out already, cheers

Poor Rourky. You are going to need a few drinks when this is all over <img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

Its not so bad TC, its what you expect when you do a bash due to the large numbers, we'll all be fine, a good yomp/womble, nice food, few beers, good company, cant fault it.

I'm having venison, I hope the old deers haven't been flirting with the stallion.
However, a stallion medallion sounds interesting, as long as it isn't Tesco.

Surely non of you guys are going to eat Bambi<img src='theme/emoticon_confused.png' />
Belly Pork for me please<img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

Yep, bambi for me please

Food order placed.....
I'm still accepting order's for those that haven't already.

Well it won't be prepared by the Galloping Gourmet- he's expired, although he was in a stable condition before that.

I like my carrots glazed with golden stirrup.

Stallion,is that Minty`s aftershave?

Yes, he bought it in Tesco, in the reduced aisle when he was looking for horse burgers - there's been a Gallup poll about them apparently, but not everyone's hot to trot in giving their onions.

Hi Minty,is that why you refer to your onions as Shergar. When you apply your wonder treatment they disappear?<img src='theme/emoticon_tongue.png' />

Of course Horse meat has been available for years as the manure in my shoes over the years has made no difference to my height<img src='theme/emoticon_smile.png' />

If the manure is in your shoes, surely it would make a difference to your length? Just be careful going over the hurdles.

Ha ha, LR66 is a battery, so should definitely be able to carry on jumping.

Thanks for those of you who have replied to my inquiry on both the Forum and Invites threads, i have your orders logged ready for the pub. I am however still waiting for the following people to get their orders to me so the pub can have a heads up before we descend on them this week.
