Has anyone got Kev Minty's e-mail address or phone number, if so could you please send it to me.

Cheers Richie B

Julia, Sorry sent reply to your office, but don't know if you're back at work yet, so.... yes please would love your help, if you arrive anytime after 9am, would be great, Thanks.

Hi Ginny
If there is anything you want me to do on the Hangover 10 I am more than happy to help.

Robbie, Thanks for the offer, we are short of quite a few marshals, please arrive at Village Hall anytime between 9 and 10, the earlier the better, the same applies to anyone who is free to help, also ladies needed for cafe, nice warm inside job!!
Kit Stokes imposter, we have plenty of jobs for you, just turn up.

I would love to sweep the Hangover 10k, also if you want me to arrive early to help mark the course out i am willing. Is 5.30 early enough?

Hi Ginnie
Re Hangover 10.
I ran it last year so I'm happy to do what ever job you wish, but if possible not the sweeper, thats a dreadful job.
Regards
Rob

Wyvern Xmas Cracker
A camera was found after the race in Carlton Road Car Park. Thought to belong to a group of runners dressed in Blue shirts with a skeleton outline printed on them getting into a minibus.
If this your camera please telephone the finder - Mr Eddie Godwin ON 01934 628436.

I have a large selection of photographs for the Wyvern Christmas Cracker 10K on show at www.cal-photography.co.uk. Prints are available to order.

Volunteers required to help at the Hangover 10k on New Year's Day. If you can do the same job you did last year please let me know asap. Anyone else free that day would be welcomed with open arms, just send an email. Thanks.

Phil W,
I see my name has been taken in vain yet again on this website (see below). Much as I enjoyed the breakfast, the 5:30 start wasn't all its cracked up to be.

Thanks for the Xmas Cracker on Sunday. Specially liked the weather you ordered this year! The long sleeve T shirts are a really good idea, let's have another next year. Also liked the creatively placed 3k marker - I thought either my watch or my legs were about to pack up.

London Marathon April 2004.
Would every Club Member who has entered please let me know whether you have been successful or not. If you have been unlucky you're name will be entered into the Club Draw for the 2 Club Entries we have received. Either E.Mail me or Tick the relevant column on our Notice Board at Hutton Moor. The draw will take place on the night of our Xmas Run - Tuesday Dec.23rd.

Thank's Phil. Please put my name down for the 5:30 am gang again next year.

Thanks to every one for the cracker even the weather was good. Looking forward to 2004. Great race to get any one in the christmas spirit.

Many thanks to everyone who helped make the Wyvern Xmas Cracker such a great success. Without the help of Club Members,friends and helpers from Weston Hospice we could not have done it.
Well done and thank you.

Thanks for all your hard work in orgainsing last nights Club Dinner. I awoke this morning like Ginnie without a hangover but with worrying images of some guy doing a Mick Jagger impression on the dance floor!!
I think said images may remain in my mind for a long time, but was certainly my high light of the evening!!

Jimbo (White).
Thanks for the social evening last night, we had a great time, and no headache today!!
Cheers, Ginnie

Message for Dave (Jones). I've dropped the entry form in at your place, (saw Janet). You can see the alterations I made, can you get it printed in red as before, 2000 should do it. Let me or Geraldine know the price. Thanks.

Were did you get the results for Compton Dando ? I have been scouring the net to no avail !!!
If so could you fire me over a copy. I think I was just ahead of your first bloke!!!

Hello
Can Tony Sperrin please contact me on below e-mail address. Nice to see you all at Bristol Half.
Cheers
Kevin

Would the whole Weston AC club membership please accept my apologies for my recent dress code violation? I wasn't at home the night before, and forgot to pack my vest. Sorry everyone.

Message for Gavin Clegg (Poole Runners) - I collected your trophy from the Burnham Harriers Beach Race (3rd Male Vet). Let me know when you are running locally again and I will bring it along.

The draw for the monthly Easy Runner voucher was carried out on Thursday 4th September and was won by Ruth White.

Is that the best you can do? Tessa says my legs are bootiful.

Missed you on telly Kit. Did hear a rumour that Bernard Matthews has expressed an interest in those legs though !

Could not agree with you more Kit.It really is a waste the camp at the moment and it would be a good venue for the club.Come on chairman pull some strings.Cannot make drink on sunday Kit but can i have your autograph after seeing you on national tv.

It's well worth a thought kit, have you got any contacts at the council who could advise if its going to be kept or torn up? is it flood lit and would they mind putting some wooden posts up just to give us a laugh!.
Would love a beer after Bristol but Neale thinks I should attend AA
meetings.

P.S. Anyone fancy a beer after the Bristol half on Sunday?

Has the W.A.C ever considered using RAF Lockings athletic track as a regular venue. I've used it a couple of time recently and its ideal for measured intervals. I even had a security guard and an alstation watching me.

Seriously though it's much better than running round the rugby field or the beach (with those silly wooden posts) and it even has floodlights. With a bit of love and attention it could be a Field of Dreams for the club. I'm sure the Council would love to get the developers to upgrade as part of the redevelopment of the Camp.

Please discuss.

For sale barely used club kit and 17 new pairs of size 9 trainers , any offers considered retirement forces sale.

It looks as though I may not be able to do the Bristol Half, but wont know for sure till Thursday. If anyone is interested in an entry please let me know.

Is anyone local running the New York Marathon this year? Work have tempted me to have a go as part of the 1st UK Hospice Team but as a new runner I would value some local advice/help!

Does anyone know where I can obtain race results for the Sidmouth 10k held on August 10th 2003?

Wanted - Cycling Training Partner. I bought Tessa a bike and we've just been out on the Sea Front but she refuses to let me draft !

Message for Simon Lund:

One careful lady owner. Any good offers considered.

Hi Gerry,

Tell me when Big Neale is out training and I'll pop around.

Hi Rob I'm on holiday on the 29th but will pass on your jacket to someone who is going.

Hi Kit, I belive you honest!!!
Im sure that now you have the respected status of 'IRONMAN'even Phil will bend the rules to allow you to continue to wear the prestigious yellow vest. My address is 188 Locking Road, BS23 3LU. If you can get your cheque to me by next weekend your name will be included in the next club draw where you could win £50 worth of Easy Runner Vouchers. I'm sure you must be in need of a new pair of trainers after all the miles you have done recently.

Re Hash run, 19th July.
Hi Steve.
I have left my blue lightweight jacket at the above. Would you please bring it to Paul Snelling's do on the 29th July.
Thanks to you both for a very good evening - thoroughly enjoyed it.
Regards
Rob.

Hi Geri,

I have a cheque for my subs for you honestly - but whenever I see you I forget to hand it over. Can I still wear my yellow vest until the transaction takes place.

Whats your home address.

I wonder if you can help me please.


I work on behalf of the Birth Defects Foundation and we have just had 22 runners take part in the London 10K. It was a wonderful event and hopefully we will have raised quite a lot of money from it.


As a member of a running club, I was wondering whether you have any runners who would do a sponsored run for us over the coming months.


No doubt a number of your runners have children. Our charity is committed to bringing health to babies by doing research aimed at preventing, treating, and improving understanding of birth defects of all kinds. We also run a national Here to Help service which is manned by trained nurses. We recognise and respond to the very special needs of people who have a child with a birth defect, are concerned about having a child with a birth defect, or are themselves affected by a birth defect. Given that one in five babies born in the UK have some kind of birth defect, our cause may touch a number of your members.


Also, you may have a clubhouse or pub that you use and during a social evening may wish to raise some money for us ie a quiz night, a darts/skittles or may just want to have a collecting can at that venue.


It would be wonderful if you or your members could help.


If you would like to have some literature from me please do not hesitate to let me know. You can however go to www.newlifeaction.co.uk to find out more about us and the fabulous work that is done.


Please call me on 01543 468 888 or 07970 184 654 if you have some runners or feel you can help in any way. I will happily supply Tshirts and sponsorship forms if needed for any event.


Many thanks.

I'm sure I'm speaking for everyone when I say thanks to Dave and the rest of the club committee for the club fleeces - a great gesture in this the 25th year of the club.
I could'nt have faced wearing a yellow one though !

The Club FLEECES are now available,and can be collected from me at Hutton Moor on Tuesday evening, they definately will NOT be available at the PROM RACE Thursday.(It means transporting 5 very large boxes!)

Many many thanks to all our marshalls, time keepers, kitchen helpers & all others who helped on the Hangover 10K. Without all of you, including those marshall who turned up on the day unanounced the race could not happen. Due to some marshalls not making it on the day you were all very welcome sights for sore eyes. Once again thank you all. It looks like profits will be on a par with 2002 and will help swell club funds.
Thanks to all the 105 runners who took part, sorry about the weather but next year hopefully it will be slightly better and we hope to see you then, if not before at other events

Found at the Hangover 10K race
1. A pager.
2. An Asthma inhaler
If you have lost any of these please contact me on 01934 413908 or 07974 325945 or my e mail

Thanks for a great run on 1st Jan. It was really well organised. It was my first ever race and, after this experience, it won't be my last!
