Look what Robbie has don

When I got home last night, Robbie was talking 20 words to the dozen when he suddenly said:

"You'll never guess what I have done?".

"Oh no, what now" I replied, expecting to hear that he had bought another copy of the Porsche Owners Club magazine or Reptiles World or some other publication based upon a packaged gift.

"I've gone and won the bl**dy Ramsey Fireman's runs" he told me.

Robbie had never taken part until the second round this year when Laurence Dyer showed him the way around (Robbie was worried about the course and the dark) only for Robbie to put the boot in during the last lap and leave Laurence behind.

Robbie has since improved with ever round and so hard did he try in the last race that he slept most of the weekend to recover. He is listed as Lambdon rather than Lambden and here is his improvement:

Firemans_3_Lap
DATE POS NAME SURNAME TIME HCAP
12/11/2009 47 Robbie Lambdon 39.51 50.51
03/12/2009 1 Robbie Lambdon 36.51 43.51
14/01/2010 13 Robbie Lambdon 36.30 47.10
04/02/2010 6 Robbie Lambdon 35.37 45.57
11/03/2010 14 Robbie Lambdon 35.08 46.28

We weren't able to stay for the presentations last Thursday and amazingly for the Isle of Man nobody had told us of his success. And Robbie read the Manx Independent at his Gran's house before I had bought our copy and the "b" word was used there too when he saw the headline.

The headline this morning is for the Easter Festival. You must get your entry in by tomorrow, which means posting it today. You can offer to help at any time but the sooner the better.
