What a busy week
Well, just a quick hello to everyone and apologies again for the slight delay in blogs, I had a hair out of place!!!!!!, So what has happenede since the last time, well Calum felt left out and HAD to write and critisise my first every blog. He only did that as he is in sunny Cyprus and wont do it face to face.....only joking my old mucker. Princess has had the flu so has been non-existant on a bike the last week, Ian still hasnt bought a bike but will do...........................one day, me, well I am buying a new Bianci for my birfday. A nice present for a 21 year old.......I said 21 lol. Anyway just with anything sometimes work takes over from time to time and finding just that spare 2 hours is very difficult, so I have cleared my diary and am preparing to Rock and Roll next week and get some more miles in the legs. Not long until the ride and yes I am getting excited at the thought. I will write a bit more of intersting blog the next time but I must say a big thank you to everyone that has sponsored us so far. A big thanks to Glasgow Window Cleaning for their kind donation of £300, great stuff. Onwards and upwards, more sponsorship to find. Speak soon bloggers, cheerio tha nooo

RIPPING GOOD TIME
Evening to the Blogoshpere from the sun drenched shores of Cyprus. Congratulations to EVIL LEADER for his blog entry - how he managed to bribe a 5 year old to write it for him is beyond belief (after all given the amount of spelling errors and the deployment of awful syntax it surely could not have been written by anyone outside Leuchars Primary).
Anyway, moving on, tragedy has befallen me with a (sober) fall on Day 1 of my training camp resulting in ripped ligaments and a visit to the Doctor. However the application of Bruffen and Spicy Rum mean I should make the double spin session booked for Monday.
I am thrilled to hear my team-mates are training hard; as for me I think its all about looking good on the bike so I'm off to work on my tan. Toodly Pip.

Evil leader steals password and username
Well my trusted bloggers, a very fine good day to you all from the evil leader. You are probably wondering where the Ferguson has gone. Well, he has gone to do some climate training in Cyprus, or so he says, he was last seen heading south with a knotted hankie on his head and his trousers rolled up to his knees with a blackpool kiss me quick hat on......you can only wonder what fantatstic place he has taken the beautiful Mrs F.
So whats been happening dudes since Calums last entry, i mean blog. Cal has had the man flu, princess has been travelling south to see Simong every week, Ian the Umpahlumpa has been trimming his hedges or so he says, and me I have been training like a trojan, trying to lead by example but the other lazy scoundrels just wont have any of it.
We went out this week to take advantage of some hills whilst calum is away, Princess decided don some shorts and show us her pins for the first time. She also decided to pedal up the hill in the wrong gear and stop half way saying " I cant do it" and proceeded to laugh. Umpalumpha felt that she required some assistance and turned round on the hill to aid the the fledgling princess only to fall off UP hill. This was like a scene from Wacky races with me being the father figure tutting and shaking my head saying "why oh why".
Well, just over 2 months until the great cycle south of the border. Magic Mick our hands on physio Specialist is warming his hands up, Derek Rollo who is our chef and other support person is now the proud owner of a bouncing 9Ib 6oz bay boy called Jack, Congrats to Derek and Lorna on their new addition. No wonder he has volunteered to come as support on this trip, it does mean he will get a good nights kip.
Lex are proudly supplying th team with a vehicle for the full duration to aid our course. Many thanks go to Diane Savage for the speedy replies and support she has shown us on behalf of Lex.
Well bloggers, see I am not that evil once you get to know me. Whilst Calum is away, Craig will play. Tune in next week for an update on the weekends activerties.

TUNNOCK TASTIC

Greetings blogmates, I hope this finds you spankingly well and rosy cheeked with joy. Sorry I’m a bit late posting but I’ve just spent a week in Englandshire home of cricket, clotted cream and Morris dancing. So now I’m back but tainted with a strange desire to eat jellied eel and mash and shout “Cor Blimey Guvnor”. No doubt a mountain of Tunnocks Caramel Wafers washed down with a bath tub of Buckfast will soon help me recover.
Apparently there was lots of activity in my absence; most notably a foot stamping pique by EVIL LEADER. I’m told that PRINCESS and OOMPALOOMPAH invited DWARFBURD to join them on a gentle training ride around the lanes of leafy St Andrews. All was spankingly well for the first 100m after which DWARFBURD’s Anglo Saxon utterings grew louder and louder as she fell further and further behind. So far behind that she rode into a separate time zone and EVIL LEADER launched his toys and stropped off home to put more product on his hair. The others then retired to a local hostelry to plot on overthrowing EVIL LEADER who is now to be known as the STROPPYONE.
Anyway I managed to get out on my bike with OOMPAH and STROPPY and, after a wee peddle along the coast, was invited back to OOMPAH’s mansion for tea and biscuits. I took a seat in the visitor’s lounge in the West Wing of OOMPAH Towers where I met MRS OOMPAH. She is lovely, GWAR and must fancy me because she offered me one of OOMPAH’s Tunnocks Caramel Wafers from the special biscuit tin. The fact that she spends half her life with her hand up cow’s bums probably accounts for the glazed look on OOMPAH’s face!
All that but not much training. Work seems to have overcome most of us the last 2 weeks but I am sure, like the horsemen of the apocalypse and Arnie, we’ll be back……………soon. Toodly bye.
