Diary - The day before...

Friday 24th August 2007

We decided to keep a diary over the few days of the BritBallRun so here's the first installment...

T`s Diary...

It`s been quite a restful day in the Team SMARTies camp. Lovely breakfast here at the B&B this morning and then I had a hobble around for half an hour. The village we are staying in is very quiet and some how has quite a calming affect on me! I got chatting to a gentlemen who lives next door to our B&B which made the hobble back a little more interesting.

Our B&B

Andrew had arranged for us to visit a good friend of mine over in Birminghm today. Sonny and I have known one another for about 10 years or so through various music related websites. We have always had a good laugh and it was great to finally put a face to the name. Sonny also happens to work for SMART and it was myself that introduced him to Andrew back in October 2006. Within just a few emails Andrew had bought the little Roadster.

View from the Pub

Right now I am supposed to be snoozing/resting but even though I`m pretty tired I just couldn`t get to sleep. Tonight we are going to meet one of the other teams that are taking part in the Britballrun. Hopefully we`ll have a nice evening then it`s very early to bed so we can be at least half awake when we head out at 7am!

Andrew`s Diary...

Guess I'll start where T left off. I was fast asleep when Chris from Team KillerViral sent a text arranging our meet. I repaid the compliment by waking him up early this morning and hopefully we'll all be meeting a the pub later.

The Local

I had a motive for meeting Sonny and he popped outside with his mull grips and sorted out my out of shape roof. He also used a special force (brute) to fix the offside skirt that received a little damage recently at the ring.Sonny also helped us out by emailing a picture to the printers for us (they couldn't read an SD card and my ickle laptop isn't connecting to he web out in the sticks).

After picking up the leaflets we headed back and I had a go at setting up the camcorder/dogcams. Am both excited and a little nervous about tomorrow and am sure we will all have great time.

Perfect end to a summers day
