I might come, but part of me would rather come on a normal sunday morning, so I can ride more.
I will see how things go. Im sure it will be great, and if I do come, I'll be happy I did.

"I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah."
