We've arrived a bit earlier than usual.
So, at the Bottom Ess, we're ready for some action.
But, no sooner than we sit down, it's an early lunch break.
So we'll simply rest and scoff our lovely home-made
Granary Corned Beef and salad cobs, before heading up to
the Top Ess at the commencement of the timed runs.
