    Good luck Sam!

    Our thoughts will be with you.

    And the force. That too.

    What! the biggest even in Wales since, well, ever, and you're not going
    to turn up to cheer him on! :eek:

    Thanks Steve, et al! You lot over the pond can seem pretty funny
    sometimes, but you certainly have the encouragement thing to a tee. 🙂

    I don't know if I'm getting a bit of hypercondria, but I'm telling
    myself the twinges in my right knee and ankle are inconsequential.
    It'll be fine...

    And I don't know what the checkout girl at the supermarket thought of
    the amount of pasta and bananas I was buying on my own (four bunches
    and seven half-kilo packs). Mmm... pasta...

    Really looking forward to it - see you Friday Sam.

  6. I'm off to do the same TV thing again with the BBC Wales this morning.
    More fun and games with the And Finally guys. That should also be for
    this evening, if anyone who can get BBC Wales wants to see it or record
    it.

    Steve: I will have supplies of most of my food, but I doubt I'd turn
    down some hot pasta or drinks! Thanks.

    I've just picked up a 24 bar box of Geobars - Fairtrade cereal bars.
    At one an hour x 130 Kcalories each that's 3120 Kcal, and 600g of carb.
    Tasty 🙂

  7. I won't be able to do the BBC recording - won't be home early enough
    unless its on the late news. Should have the ITV one covered though -
    it's set to record all three news slots (11:10, 13:30? and 18:00).

    Hopefully somebody else can grab the BBC for you.

    I once had a bad experience with a bigot. Now I hate them all - even
    the ones I haven't met.

  10. I've got BBC Wales Today set to record (6:30pm & 10:25pm) and if I don't
    forget I'll record ITV at 6:00pm as well (that'll have to be manually
    though, Sky+ added channels quirk 🙁 )

    I like their apricot, raisin and honey ones, yummy 🙂

    Oh and good luck Sam.

  11. Good luck Sam. I'm sure you'll do fine. Glad to hear you get some riders
    to join you during this ordeal.
    Hey - you might want to strap a ghettoblaster and a disco ball to those
    handlebars - rhythm is important...😄

    Whish I could be there to cheer you on.

  12. You're a champ, Sam. Just take it lap by lap, and remember that in 24
    hour's time, you'll be a part of unicycling history!

    Cheers from the States. I hope to see you at Ride the Lobster.

  13. Good Luck Sam! I wish I could join you (for a lap or two!) but I'm too
    far away without a car. Hope it all goes well. See you soon
