Well, we are registered and getting ready for tomorrows starting line! But more about this in a while...
On the ferry we met more new friends, very chatty and entertaining, Joel "the Tesco man" Mann and Joan were on they're way home from a cruise. They are regular users of the Larne ferry and recomended the complimentary evening dinner (among a lot of other things we talked about over the 7 3/4 hour sailing) AND IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT!!!!!!!!
Ok, brace yourselves, here we go...:boiled egg, tuna mayo, potato salad, green salad, spicy wings...chili, pork chops, fried fish, lamb chops, sauteed potatoes, pilau rice, chips, runner beans, sweetcorn...rhubarb crumble, bannoffee pie, bread and butter pudding, custard tart and cheese and crackers! COME ON!!! Stenna Line, we salute you!
We eventually found our hotel after a slightly stressful 25 minutes going round Belfasts' one way/road work system! The staff at the reception were helpful in guiding us to the Crown Pub for scally registration by giving us useful landmarks such as the town hall, the Europa Hotel and Anne Summers!
We registered and the first people we bumped into and introduced orselves to happen to be Team 86 that John had been chatting to for ages on the Scally forum! Propper Botch!!!
anyway, we have met more people than we can remember and a great time was had by all :-)
right 7am start so night night and spread the word
