Dec 9th attempt(s)?

Post by Urzzz1871 »

Anyone know how Geoff is going?

His last tweet was a 2.11pm and he was 5 mins down on GWR time.

Is anyone else out there today doing one final attempt before the KO timetable changes?



Editied title to make it more mysterious!!! :lol:

Geoff doesn't seem to publicise his attempts beforehand, which is understandable.

However, it was a pretty fair bet that at least 1 of the more serious challengers would be out there today given the changes next week.

I would be surprised if Geoff was the only one having a go. Maybe we will hear more over the weekend.

Just spoke to him via text message him - I would tell you how he's doing, but as he gets funny about anyone knowing anything about anything he does, I can't. :roll:

I bet, like me, people would find it difficult to get a day so close to Christmas off.
Mind you adding rumours to the fire:
- Sam been very quiet on twitter today
- You can never write off Andi!
