For those of you wondering what happened at Mallory, in the end I didn’t go. Although, it was apparently a carnage-strewn race that was good to miss.
I didn’t go to Mallory because Anthea ended up in Papworth Hospital undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting. Unsurprisingly, I didn’t feel like going to Mallory. She seems to be on the mend now, though, which is great. It’s a long way back to fitness though, apparently about 3 months.
The big issue now is, will she be well enough for me to do the Birkett?

I hope she doesn’t hear you say that!

You obviously don’t know my wife. She was fretting about whether we were going to make the Birkett while she was still in intensive care. She had actually insisted that I did the Mallory race, but I ignored her.
This perhaps explains why the whole procedure is so tough…
