    I got to keep all the chocolate fish I had bought for prizes to myself. After my recce, and printing enough questionnaires for Justin Case, he didn't turn up, and neither did anybody else who wanted to play scavenger, apart from UncaMoose, and choccy fish ain't good for him, and I don't want to get in trouble with my big Sis AGD by making her hubby fat. So we flagged the Scavenger Run, and instead followed Paul Foley around the same area the hunters would have ridden while he continued running the new toy in. UncaMoose, YoungJim, keen to be back on a bike after spending bumzillions of Euros on OE with Her Indoors, and Bwucie, the Sex Toy and the Camera as TEC.

We explained to the wait staff at The Village that they needed to be good, because Jim is a whining Pom. They assured us the Chef was another of the same!smallIMG_0395.jpgThis is the Red/Black Baron's plate - notice he's having a bit of egg with his pepper (Team Red Baron met us at Patumahoe)smallIMG_0398.jpgAnd the recently Harleying across America Baron leaves half his all day breakfast.

    Sorry I couldn't be there, I was otherwise engadged with a hammer and a saw….Looking forwardd to a nice ride down to Taupo next weekend and a night on the Town though.I reckon Paul should call his bike Morpork, it looks just like an OWL in front profile............I would be a little more cryptic of course and call it Ankh !!!!Oh well back to work,see yers at Phsycotreads later one,I won't be on Binky though,hardly worth putting our gear on for two motorway junctions !!!!!RegardsRincewind
