LOL don't worry Neil I am much older than 33, that is assuming I manage to actually get to the pub after the challenge as I am not the fittest person

I'll be 47 on the 19th. Will any single girls be at the pub?

Hey, this is a Tube Challenge, not a speed date.

Well, there will be a fair amount of speed on the day, as well as (hopefully) a bit of ecstasy.

I'm probably going to be hanging around until I need to leave to catch a train back to Birmingham (probably the 19:40)

Anyone got any thoughts or cautionary tales on how much alcohol its safe to consume before boarding a wobbling Pendolino for an hour or so?

Just be glad that the Pendolinos don't tilt south of Birmingham!

If in doubt, they sell alcohol on board.

You mean they're meant to be flat on that bit between Rugby and Milton Keynes/Tring?
Change of plans, I'm taking Chiltern :p

Some of us will be hanging around untill the sleeper sevice to paddington so hopefully the party wont break up to soon.

I'm now definitely not coming as I'll be on the radio. So if anyone wants me to do a tube feature...

CrunchySaviour · Post by **CrunchySaviour** » 09 May 2006, 11:13

What would be really good would be this:

a) Adham does a feature on the Z1C day on his show
b) someone sets their computer, at home or at the pub meet, to record the show (it is broadcast over the internet at sureradio.com)
c) Adham phones me or someone else and I pass the phone around between the challengers.

That would be good.

Chilterns don't tilt either! They do vibrate a lot at every station, if you find that at all exciting.

The platforms at the stations south of MK are so mis-aligned to the rails, the trains are always tilting anyway, and that includes Silverlink! I used to live in Berkhamsted.

The "66 Feet Under Team" won't quit early (8)

In fact half the team (8)

[8)]) (including half the sponsors/spouses) will catch a bus to Stansted for the first Saturday flight back to Sweden. These busses run all night, and arriving too early in Stansted is no big hit...
