Well maybe I'll stay polite enough to not get in trouble when I get home this time.

I imagine:

The night according to Dave.
I swanned off to a friends house, had a few quiet drinks.
feeling it was prudent to keep a clear head for the next days racing I headed off home earlier than I could have.
Upon returning home I attempted to woo my good lady with some suave charm.
I can't understand why she is angry.

The night according to Mrs Dave.
Dave got pissed again and woke me up when he stumbled in asking for a root at 3am.
Stupid bastard.

The preceding story is entirely a construct of my over-active imagination and is intended as a pisstake.

Seems plausible, of course Dave must be turning up quite late in the piece anyway, since I don't remember him being there at all last time.

Yip, it was way late in the piece. At least 6.30pm. All I recall (not much, but blame alzheimers rather than booze) is ensuring you got into YOUR bed and then coming out and seeing Dave sitting there. Don't think I lasted much more, but I remember thinking somewhere between Manfeild and Wellington that I needed my nana nap. I guess I need more than 3 hours sleep these days.

It was quite a while after you conked out, could have been sometime after 7pm.

Ahh, yeah around 6:30 is probably about right...

Yeah he was just staggering in (I was already there). Think he even managed a 'hi'.

First race is won. Patrick - your first podium at this Round.

The rest of you - don't be last and get your entries in!

I am still in negotiations with my GP as to when I will get my licence back.

**F5 Dave** · 26th August 2011, 16:47

Well I've put my entry in for the 8th at least. Paid & emailed entry to Skunkworks.

Pity the 9th clashes with my fav trail ride, but there you go.

woop woop!
