The F Word....

What I haven't yet mentioned is my invite to Gordon Ramsey's post- marathon party. Naturally when he heard I was running the London marathon, the first thing Gordon did was to get his agent to ring me to see if I could be persuaded to attend. In the end I said yes, but only to shut him up.

 

Ok, the truth is that I work with Gordon's mum ( a lovely lady and regular 'church'-goer!!!) and she kindly invited Andy and I along to the Ramsey's annual marathon party. Woo-hoo!! How exciting is that?! Of course having run 26.2 (and yes the .2 IS important!) miles, I'm not sure what sort of state I'll be in. I'm just hoping that the adrenalin will keep my upright for long enough to say hello to Gordon and his family.

Can't wait to hear him swear!.......

You are a shameless name dropper Jones-it never made it to your blog when I invited you to dinner-oh thats right, you made excusses and turned me down. Just cos I'm not a celebrity. Fortunatly I love you both so you are forgiven-THIS TIME! Say hello to Gordon for me, then I'm sure you'll hear him swear.

No I think I will open a resturant, let it fail then ring channel four so they can send him round to save it! altogether less effort than you are putting in. However I believe you are fantastic for doing this-quite mad but fantastic none the less.
