Sorry for the long delay in posting this but it's a long one and I am now just getting the time to post it....I am sure it's been worth the wait.
Memories are made of this ........JogScotland Diary Great Scottish 10k Run
Saturday 1st September '07
11am Here we go here we go.....no we cant. First problem encountered...we dont know how to get the mini bus door open.
You really had to be there to witness it .
After about 15 mins we managed to figure it out and we are off..well not yet.
Caro kindly made us a big poster for the back window ' JogScotland Wee Toon.' Can see who's the teacher in the group.
11.20am Fiona28 finds her bearings and we are finally off .
11.23am Near collision with white van..First episode of road rage from Edie McCreadie.
11.30am Just passing Westport..feels like its going to be a long journey.
11.33am Edie McCreadie negotiates her first overtake. Well done
Phew ..made it.
11.40am Passing DJD hoose....toot toot went the big yellow bus.
11.45am All got achy jaws from laughing so much
11.46am One handed wheelie as fiona28 shows us her new toning routine. .
11.47am Just passing Ronachan....it was suggested to drop Ags and Panslass off.
12noon An hour into the journey and we are asking Fiona28 to get her pilots licence to take us all over to the Dublin 10k race next year.
12.09pm DJD's song now blasting !! Who need vodka 4th gen . Singing under way and we have had nae bevvy...Zero, Zilch, nil, nada NANE .
12.10pm Arriving in Tarbert...oops nearly knocked doon a wee pensioner crossing the road.
12.30pm Panslass calls local radio..takes DJ off air and request's a song . 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' .
Friends of Dorothy kindly plays it for us and says a few kind but cheeky words about us on air.
1.05pm Inverary..talent at last as fiona28 toots at some rather handsome walkers in shorts drinking beer. Caro eyes popping oot her heed.
1.40pm Hit our first pothole. Fiona28 managed to miss all the others.
1.45pm First photo shoot and 'P' stop at Tarbet. Panslass managed to find someone (male of course) to take our picture..caused a domestic later on but thats another story...
Watch oot for that JogScotland calender.
1.55pm Contemplating how fiona28 will manoeuvre the big yella bus oot off Tarbet carpark. Nae bother to Edie McCreadie ...was it the handsome Geordies that did the trick.
3pm First stall...so not bad considering this is Fiona28's first drive in the big yella bus.
3.01pm Lunch stop....saw the 'photo shoot' men again. Think they must be following us. PL just caused a domestic.
4pm Arrive almost at our destination ..in Glasgow City Centre. We made it or didnt ...more to follow as I need to go Ags waiting on me to go for that 4 miler this morning. Back soon.
