TUBE 22 WET,WINDY AND WILLING

Post by palkanetoijala31 »

Keeping up with the attempts record tube 22 will be going ahead Friday 13th November the original date of what i thought was Children in need doh!i still had the day off.

First off what i require is a starter stopwatch person and just somebody to accompany throughout the day to do witness statements and a few photos but no runs unless they want to this will be my first solo attempt since tube 11.

Ah yes I think when he means he got the U1 this was from West Ruislip rather than running to Ickenham station and then back to the shops to catch the U1 from there some 20mins after arriving at West Ruislip.... :!:

Anyway the driver of todays U1 told him it would take 10mins to get to Uxbridge so he got off at the bottom of the bridge and ran to Ickenham anyway :P
