"Tomorrow". It's an odd word, is it not? Sometimes it can be an excuse ("I'll do it tomorrow"), sometimes the occasion of hope, sometimes a cause of apprehension and sometimes - just sometimes - a harbinger of dread ("I have a maths exam tomorrow").

Tomorrow (Wednesday October 14th at the time of writing), Team Botch embark on their opus around Ireland. I'm not sure which of the meanings it has for them - maybe a bit of a mix of all of them. The insurance has been bought (with tears of blood from the sounds of John's complaints), the Internet access has been sorted by undoubtedly the least technical man in the team (no, not me) and the car is ready to go and covered with decals (that's a posh word for "stickers" - take a look at the flickr page if you don't believe me).

There's still time to donate at their just giving page (http://www.justgiving.co.uk/teambotch/) and don't forget you can follow their updates from the Rally on Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/teambotch/) assuming that they actually remember to do any.

So, good luck guys from all of us - have some fun, do some good (that's what this is all about after all) and remember to bring me some guinness home or I may never speak to you again.
