And today I did......

Re:

Camping one January weekend in Glen Doll around 3 decades ago :shock:

We got up and started moving reluctantly around in the freezing damp misery.

Got ready to go up something, all looking worried and still shivering.

Porridge and Oxo consumed.

A shout went out to wee Alec - Hey Alec are you ready yet we're going up the hill soon.

A feeble reply from Wee Alec - Fuk off its too fukkin cold to go snow climbing.

True :xmas-big-grin:


Several hours later myself and two others (Willie Wilson and John someone who drove a white Volvo Amazon) were heaped up at the bottom of an avalanche slope. Broke me bleedin compass it did, and got an axe through my Javelin jacket :cry:
 
January a few years back. Temp was about -8 inside the tent. Fook knows what it was like in the wind. I reckon not knocking the arse off -15c
A wee bit out of focus due to shivering :lol:

Outside you make the personal choice Alec 8) and i remember from the short meeting with the both of you that MrP has 30 years of Ale insulating him :lol:

Rob, I'm feeling the same as you today, mair than a wee bit stiff, though like you no where I'd prefer :P, and sair as feck.
Was playing in the Madras RFC oldies tournament in St Andrews yesterday, 5 15 minute games :roll: take it's toll. Playing full-back in last game I ran back to pick up a kick ahead and when I turned to run back found I was running towards 3 of them, got absolutely flattened by 2 of them but still held onto ball for our forwards to take. One of my team-mates on other side of pitch said he heard the impact from there, I heard nothing :lol: but my ribs are sair. Nae sneezing or coughing allowed. :facepalm:
As you say messing wae the youngsters, at my age most of the guys I play against are 15-20 years youger, is sure to guarantee it's gonna hurt. Still managed to get in a few hits myself though so all is well. :D
