Hello and welcome to HoP!

There are literally several people from Southampton on here, or you could try This Site for some more!

My state of mind is not yours to define!

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

Hey 2bags, would have come down, but got friends staying this weekend, so had to go out and end up with the obligatory sunday head hurts. a trip to tescos was hard enough...

Hope fully make it next sunday, and my g/f might be down so i'll get along with her poi too.

Cheers bud

I'm more of a seabluegreen person myself, but pink certainly has its useful applications within aesthetics!

I don't start till next 2006 though as i deferred my entry, but mucho excited and wish it was next year already! There'll be no excuse for not making a Falmouth event then! biggrin

Okayyy, so i've somehow found myself having entered a marathon! eek

It seemed like a good idea in theory! never really considered the actual running part! ubblol The funny thing is, is that its a run around an island seven and a half times! At least the scenery's nice, but its running past the pub seven times that's really going to hurt! beerchug

Anyway, its all for the benefit of the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, very worthy charity i feel, and if anyone feels generous enough to sponser me, despite that i've hardly met any of you! then you can goto my Sponsorship Page!

Aside from that though, well wishes and hugz would be greatly acccpeted as its going to be a long winter of training!

Great cause.
So you'll be training until April. Hey, at least it doesn't snow down here!
I went running yesterday and got completely covered in mud. And I ache too much today to try again. (Well, that's my excuse).
I also go bright red when I run. It's very embarrassing. So I try not to do it in front of other people. redface

More hugs for the brave and charitable bloke hug biggrin
