Yes Fred, I've been through all the drunks ringing me every 5 minutes, that's why I give everybody Rick's number. :haha:

Funny how they don't ring me when I'm overseas and it will cost them a fortune, obviously they only miss me when I'm just down the road. :tear:

I've missed two since we started the Rocks Run 11 years ago Pete. One when I was required to attend a golf presentation night when I was the Treasurer (that was when I was getting phone calls every 10 minutes :swear1: :angry10: ), and the second one was last year when I was Cruising between Singapore and Hong Kong. This will be my third apology.

Settle down Chippy One ........ :icare: Just pulling the pud!!! None of us can always attend the Rock's Run for the very type of reasons you explained. Our life has to go on, and cannot be built around this event. You enjoy your trip, and I'll try to stop the others from saying 'orrible things about you........as I always do!!! :wink1:

Yes, I remember the year we all rang you. And to be fair, it was from each pub, not every 5 or 10 minutes. :grin:

I also remember it got more @#$% hilarious the more pubs we visited. :happy2: :happy2: :happy2: :happy2: :happy2: :happy2:

So much so that we were near legless the last time we rang! :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha:

Ah :!: Have fun you lot, I don't mind you ripping the pisser out of me, after all that's what makes this site so good. :yess:

Every pub Chris :?: It seemed like every time I tried to take a sip of red, the drunks were burbling some bullshit down the line. :mock: :jerk: But it was quite funny I must admit. :laughing8:
