The Scorchers friends, families and Coaches again did the club proud on a great day at this years bed race. It was a fantastic day, and it was brilliant to hear all the support for the team during the procession and especially during the race.Our theme of Bollywood gave some great colour and music plus some cool moves (thanks to Eddie's girls for teaching us oldies the steps) on the high street. Extra big thanks go to the Art Department (Mark and Adele) for putting in a huge effort in both the organisation and the creation of out magnificent 'Bollywood Nellie' elephant float - surely only beaten to best dressed bed by an 8foot Jack Russel!!
Onto the the race. Without Rory we were nearly 8 minutes faster this year - coming in with a time of 16mins 35 - putting us 22nd out of 86 beds. The same time last year would have put is 12th! After the team caught their breath, you may have heard an interview with them on Stray FM.Special thanks to Sam - our very brave 'girl on the bed' - well done for staying calm and staying dry!
There is a photo gallery up on the site of a bunch of shots of the day - just click the photo section in the navigation at the top or click here!
See you all next year.
