Andy. Does everyone use the Forum? Can a message be put on Yahoo that we are desperate? Presume those mentioned last night were unavailable.

Mike Shackcloth (Note spelling) has stepped in to save the Dave. Thanks Bob T for sorting this out.

John, can you post my contact mobile number on the yahoo group please? 07518346984 This is the number people should use to contact me on please.

Spoke with most people now, got a few just to catch p with.

Andi. I can only send to Yahoo as a reply to another topic. Like you I cannot get on with my supposed password! I have posted your number for use by members, who look at the Email postings, in a reply to Roy's note about the Manchester X Country. More members use Yahoo than use the Forum so your number will get round. Glad you seem to have got a full team. C U Sunday. John

HI Al

Just got answer phone message from Andi and read forum. I am not fit and am still having some problems after op. so I will be a bit of liability time wise but could run if still short for leg 3 - but is problme solved now?. Other problem is that my whistle, compass, bag, water proof tousers are still with Duncan (I assume) after last years Calderdale way relay. Also don't have transport so would need to scrounge a lift - I will go down to Heaton Park today - but will be a bit late as I need some sleep - so won't be a round to help set course out - apologies.
Here's hoping I'm not required tomorrow for the relay!

Well done Roadrunner! The run tomorrow will not be half as stressfull as finding a team!! Hope the weather relents a bit though. Good luck to the As and the Bs.

Hope all are well and looking forward to this event tomorrow. The weather is set to be awful so come prepared for the cold and rain.

Looking at the result. Horwich and Pudsey had cracking runs and deserved to fight it out. The second Pudsey runner on Leg 6 ran a very gutsy leg. He was off the back and struggling when Horwich repassed them with three miles to go. When they passed Billy and I with 400 yards to go the two teams were neck and neck and he was still slightly detached but was still giving it his all!! Tough as old boots!!
Horwich did their homework with their recruiting too. Geoff is sorely missed. However, as Andy has pointed out and not to decry those who ran, we could do it next year with our strongest team. Would they all run though? Good question? Time will tell.
