Day-39 Football - Motivation

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

The mood onboard is positive today and in true competitive spirit, although 1000nm (1085 nm to be exact) has been hit they are both now ‘gunning’ for  the half way point! Wildlife is still rather scarce, their bodies are still holding up but they are keeping a watchful eye.

The boys had a ‘running text’ commentry (approx 60) detailing the Manchester United vs Barcelona European cup final last night from the Flying Ferkins Support Crew. They were very amused if ultimately disappointed by the result.

However, as a little motivation tactic, the texting stopped just 12 minutes before the end…..Andrew had to get out of bed and do a 3 hour shift not knowing what happened next. They then had to wait until the messages were queued and delivered 6 hours later! to find out the final result.

Good weather on the horizon (even a climse of some blue sky today), some small local squalls blowing through with rain periodically. 

Always on the hunt for discussion topics for the boys…so keep the comments/questions coming…..
