That Joke isn't funny anymore...
It seems that nearly all of the readers of this fine blog understand that not every post is filled with boring fact upon fact. Most of the time the funniest and zany things are written but deleted before the final edit as we don't think they have any place on this blog, but writing them is purely for our own amusement.
The other day I posted a blog entry titled Kevin Garnett, which appeared to be written by James. He had the best of intentions and started writing the blog before hitting a wall and falling asleep. I took over and whilst he was sat next to me (in a half asleep/awake state) I wrote something which I knew would make him laugh and bring him back to the world of the living. It did just the trick and we all had a little laugh over it. Unfortunately that small section got left in and was published for the world to see.
It has now been removed as upon further reflection I've decided it may possibly cause offence to certain individuals. Whilst we've received no complaints from either the public or the powers that be, we felt it was better to wrap it up just in case someone didn't understand that it was a joke. Taken out of context a funny joke can often seem to be a derogatory statement and I don't wish this to happen. Anyone who has read this blog from the start, or who knows James, Gaz, or myself will understand just how tongue in cheek we are and that we are certainly proud to regularly use the wonderful art of British sarcasm.
Once again, I apologise if you were one of the silent individuals who may have been offended, and reiterate again that it was not meant as anything but a private joke for James and Gaz.

while i understand the process of self-censorship, when writing under the banner of a major sponsor, TNF and your dedicated followers are intitled to a realistic impression of the general mindstate and ambience of the three of you on a trip like this.
keep up the good work.
