Not sure what point you are trying to make there Wigan. Pete is an extraordinaryly helpful fellow, why would he not give Turner a lift after you had let him down so very badly.

The point wasnt intended to disparage Pete's willingness to help, rather the sheer hard facedness of the Turner in asking. Although i am obviously grateful for you stepping in and becoming Ste's regular lift home now, it takes the pressure off me Grin

I also owe Ste an apology for training at times that do not suit his needs, i should really be more considerate and perhaps pack in work to make sure i'm there when he needs me.

Although I provide a slower and therefore longer drive than your handsome self, Ste did make it clear that I am a poor replacement for the real thing. He provided a list of reasons as long as his arm, and I was unable to disagree with any of them. Handsomeness and lemon freshness topped the list and I went swiftly downhill from there. I rarely fare well in direct comparisons

Millsy - Fear not, the Eleiko is still firmly in place at Adders. Andy is correct it is the old Johnson bar that I have had to re-claim for a while. At Least Aaron will be happy now, there are now two weightlifters and only two bars. We aim to please!!!! Grin

Pete - No plans to wrap the knees again just yet, i'll put up with the tenderness it is just one of those things for us lemon fresh people. I will no doubt be wrapping my knees again in the future, just not yet.

Andy - You know me so well!!!

In that case I hope there's a head master and a games teachers slumped in a Wigan office nursing their throbbing conkers and considering the lesson in competence that you have taught them? Grin Grin Grin

It's just a weightlifter thing, hard to explain to as a devout knee wrapping gentleman such as yourself. It is partly a mental thing, I want to get up to a certain level without wrapping as all my 'real' lifts (ie snatch and clean and jerk) are done with wraps...

I will be wrapping them in the near future fear not!!

I kind of understand that. I disagree with you, but I see where you are coming from. Surely though your real lifts are all that matter. Why worry about mere assistance work ?
