Random!

WTF! That’s a twist and a half!

Very random. Andrew doesn’t seem like the brightest crayon in the box!

This is a lovely film. (apart from their stupid ‘dog parent’ comments. you don’t have a fucking fur baby and you’re not a parent )

That being said, I looked up the price of the tour out of curiosity, €3.5k to sleep in a hut with randoms and no lunches on any day and no drinks included, plus ‘tips’.

It looks like a great trip but phuk dat!

Goodness me :exploding_head: .

I’m not sure what happened (apart from Andrew knocking hips with someone).
Who is Nikki, a friend that was giving updates?

What did she do with the information? I’m assuming kept it all quiet until after?

I was guessing Nikki Bartlett, they’re good friends I think

In the Hollywood version of this, Lucy and the other woman both rush to greet Andrew at the finish line. Andrew sees this in the distance and decides a last minute DNF and course detour is the best option. :wink:

Pretty sure I saw Nikki Bartlett saying she was supporting and maybe tweeting for Goss.

Yes, Nikki & her partner took over Lucy’s social media feeds during the race & their updates would have been crucial in bumping up the £25,000 that Lucy raised for Move Against Cancer.

Wow - a twist and a half

I had to reread that a few times . Brave and classy is all I can say about what she wrote . And sounds like she is better off without him 100%.

Bit of a kicker for Goss but sounds completely horrific, I’ve heard of the hallucinations before.

Just discovered this channel and watched a couple of his films. He’s pretty funny :grin:

She tested positive for covid the day after - no wonder she felt rough

As much as I’d love to visit this area it wouldn’t be to do this lunacy!

I’m actually feeling worse today than I have in the last couple of days. Physically a bit, as my back is in bits but also mentally somewhat.
I’m ok (kind of ) with what happened because bar some kind of miracle, I was not going to finish, and I’m ok with that.

However, I’m having a hard time getting out the door, even for a walk. I’m in that limbo-land between not being upset but not ready to get going again.
Expect a negative update on the weigh-in thread soon. :joy: :joy:
