Son of a Pronator Man Jul 2010 1:16pm, 11 Jul 2010 3,858 posts	Quote Pin Son of a Pronator Man On my 18 miler today, I went into the toilets in the park for a comfort stop and to get a drink of water. There was no drinking fountain, so I turned on the tap and cupped my hands under it. "Stop !" said a firm, authoritarian voice -"That is not drinking water". It was the toilet attendant. "Didn't you see the sign". Sure enough, there was a sign that said "Not drinking water". I had seen it, but wasn't much bothered. "Yes", I said, "I saw it, but I'm very thirsty, and I'll take the risk". "That is not fit for human comsumption", he said"health and safety rules do not allow you to drink it". Anyway, this brief conversation ended with me saying that as a Council taxpay of the local authority, who had paid for the tolets, the water and his wages, I was going to drink it unless he physically restrained me. Which, I am glad to say, he did not try to.

WolfDancer Jul 2010 2:17pm, 11 Jul 2010 1,346 posts	Quote Pin WolfDancer A nice 10 miles this morning, route had to be changed due to the strength and direction of the wind this morning. Original route would have had me running uphill into the wind for the last 5 miles. Now looking forward to upping the milage to 11 next sunday
