So, and to 2001 at very long last! It has not been a good year on the hills, with Foot & Mouth closing off many routes. But the GSF are not deterred and they stomp across the infected land regardless - so what if we catch it? That's what antibiotics are for aren't they. Above you can see Nick the Nick holding his false leg in place with his right hand, leaning on his walking sticks (oops, sorry Poles!) to ensure the vertical hold doesn't go. Pathfinder is looking somewhat overawed stuck between Limpet and his bruv Nick the Nick - "ooh you two are so strong, and handsome and clever yet somehow you manage to stay in touch with the REAL people, like me..........". Limpet of course just has his usual relieved expression at having made it to such a very high point! Behind them you can see the local council parking meter!!!!


Well, here we are! 2003 - so what happened to 2002? We are not sure but here we see Bandana Man coming to the end of his 2 year round Britain search for the missing year. Sadly it didn't turn up but he is not downhearted and in March 2004 he started his new search for Tomorrow, which he has been told never comes. Never one to believe the hype he is out to prove "them" wrong - go for it BD Man!!
Look out for his next book, available from all good booksellers from June 2004 titled "Bandana Jones and the Casked Crusade" about his other adventures in search of the Ale of The Convent (The Convent is a mythical pub from GSF folklore)................................I had better go for a lie down, I think the fumes are getting to me!!


Ahhhhh, bless. Just look at them. Here we have a rare group photo of some of the clan with the 3 Elders. From left to right: Bandana Man (his Bandana is in the wash - he was asked to do a remake of the Levi's advert but, well let's not dwell on the naked BD Man image thing), Jabba (his stillness and quietness is second only to the Dalai Lama himself - sshhhhhhhhh, be at peace), The Boy (an Elder - here seen wearing his spare leggings, actually a pair of Nuryev's old ballet tights, but they are comfy), Limpet (an Elder - desperately trying to pretend he is at sea level and definitely NOT very high up - if you look closely you can see the clenched cheeks) and finally Pathfinder (an Elder - at the front as usual and seemingly unaware that the Clan have even left the Car Park, oh well no change there then!).
