Hercules Charity Pull

So is there any rumour in the K being a bit slow off the mark?

Nothing like a winning time after a 24hr delay eh

(Genuinely - Well done all those involved for the charity raising!)

I think you will find it was 14 seconds! As usual the K started slowly but WON out in the end!!!

GO K

(I hope this doesn't start one of those K v J things again)

'Sabotage!'
'"We won by 12 secs"
Actually "it was 14 secs!"

Or as the posts should read - "The other lot had made it to the bar by the time we made it to the finish line..."

Ah, who would have thought of a 'K' going u/s on startup AFTER a towrope was attached!

Last time I looked in a dictionary, a race was won by crossing the finish line first!!!

We were too busy taking the p@@s out of the K guys (including all of 47AD) to bother pulling quickly.

We did offer a J to replace the u/s K - ops normal really!

Strange that the j didn't win really.....bearing in mind the amount of anchor men that they have to choose from!

The VC10 guys would offer to challenge the K's to a battle of the Winners, but we are too busy picking up the tasks that the K has gone U/S for...
