Typical UK!!!!!!

For what it's worth if he's not allowed to purchase it because his feet did not touch the floor then that part of the run should be struck off as not counting and the whole thing restarted

Sounds like an inquiry through the discrimination channels should be taken or I'm sure the NATIONAL papers would love to get their hands on this story. Absolute disgrace.

Feel sorry for your friend, it takes the bee hive!

NATIONAL papers would love to get their hands on this story. Absolute disgrace.

if its the sun the horse will get the blame,all these horses coming over here stealing our torches..etcmg_smile:

Ok, I'm with you for what it is and what it represents . . . .

BUT

Can't he get someone off the plumbing forum to knock a copy up with a sheet of ally, a camping stove, a drill and some gold paint?

If the plumbers have anything to do with it, there will probably be a leak!

Just about sums up "job's worth" UK!

 

[DurhamSparky]

NATIONAL PAPER...!!! pronto!! make some story up that he was going to give torch to a village in Wales that has no electricity....!! and the torch was going to light the high street up..!!

or sayhe promised it to a sick kids home!!! that will sell papers!

 

[DurhamSparky]

alternatively find said jobs worth at a further leg of journey and "throw a brick through window of escort vehicle"

 

[brucelee]

or say he was going to sell on ebay and donate proceeds to a charity of his choice

 

[HandySparks]

As I understand it, each torchbearer has an individual torch. Anyone know why they can't just have one, plus maybe a spare? Seems such a waste to me.

 

[Geordie Spark]

can the horse not buy it then,im sure those who are chosen could buy their torch before it was used..bet the jobs worth is eyeing it up for himself..

I was thinking exactly the same thing myself .......... must be a Geordie thing !!

Apparently one sold for 155k. Not sure why or which one. Or even if it's true.

 

[jaresquire]

I think that bid has turned out to be a hoax,although I was watching the auction and bids were disappearing as fast as arriving, I think eBay must've been chasing some of the bidders..

I’ve come to the concussion a lot of animals are right, hibernation!

I’m sick and tired of the Olympics now!

Come the dreaded time I’ll have the fridge and freezer stocked up. 75L of cider and 200Gm of backy already on order. A library of music to last 4500 hours. The door will be nailed shut!

God help anyone that phones me during that time.

What's your phone number Tony? Just so I can make sure I don't ring you by mistake

 

[Dan]

[Knobhead]

You’re welcome to pop around, I can see if the mine field works.
