One has to wonder how many of those letters, emails etc are received at the farm?
Which leads one to think that they must all be ignored - as I've never heard on this site that such a thing has been successful. Well, according to my own current memory.
Which leads one to think 'How could one send such a message in, to the extent that their own curiosity would get the better of them, and they decide to read such an appeal in the first place'. That would only be Base Camp 1. You would then need to draw them in and continually maintain their interest. You would then need for them to be driven to the point of salivation with desire to present you with a couple of tickets.
My word, that was a good smoke, wasn't it, he thinks to himself.
My (stoned) solution? Well that would be to send your message in one of these toy Trojan Horse's;
You never know - their normal might equate to my stoned.
I've seen people with trolleys get on the shuttle bus from Bath show ground a few times but once they reached the front of queue they had to wait for the next empty bus to appear which they may let you on. This was at quiet-ish times with trolleys that weren't crazy overloaded.
Your best bet to avoid any awkwardness is to make sure you can easily split the load on the trolley so there's no problem throwing all pieces on the bus. Anything that requires two people to lift with some serious effort and could only possibly fit into the disabled area of a bus definitely runs the risk of being turned away.
I did a 25k run yesterday with a bit still left in the tank.
But that will be it for the long runs. Can't risk an injury at this point.
Hope you all heal up over the next week.
