Done

A quick note to recognize that the Manahttan ticker-tape reception down 7th Avenue should be proceeding as planned as they emerge from the rainy late afternoon dusk. Thanks to Kingy for his local knowledge of Jersey City & environs, the boys should be arriving at the end of their epic adventure.

Here's some messages to relay from the P Evans/Bear fan club in Swansea;

" Laura: Congratulations Bear, very proud of you, looking forward to catching up for that celebratory drink or 10. xx

Lucy: Looking forward to seeing you with all the lovely pressies you've got me. x

Lindsay: Hey Bear, you've surprised us all by still being alive. Well done and congratulations. xx

Tom: having a few pints for you, well done! (ya c*&t!)"

Despite your use of erm, snooker hall language on a family site Tom, think I'll join you. Tune in over the next day or so for a report on how they chose to celebrate their achievement, the final puncture count and hopefully a few words of summary from CT & Bear.

Chow.
