Mr Bloke   1,445 #15 Posted April 6, 2014 ...But why book delivery for the morning and not the day before, then just stash it in a local warehouse ready for distribution.  ... hmmm  maybe they did, but the delivery vans couldn't get through the road closures?

metalman   21 #23 Posted April 6, 2014 It seems to be called the SIG Insulation half marathon, but I don't know whether SIG Insulation actually organise it or whether they just sponsor it. I'm guessing either way they might not do it next year... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
