My meeting with mike/tegid in london for the 1st time :) and our adventure!
Satuday morning wake up after 4hrs sleep and after having a drink, (feeling rather rough)
Me and manda get on the train to meet mike in london, once we arrive at fenchurch street we couldnt see Mike so we decided to use the toilet, bearing in mind we feel worse as the train was not kind to our little hungover heads
Once downstairs as we enter the toilet area, we heard "hello" and there stood Mike towering both of us, what a place to meet eh, he then assured he did not lurk around the train toilets usually lol, What a relief at last the guy i have been speaking to for many months is really standing there and he really exists wow,
So off we went (after visiting the toilet) to covent garden, we went and had a star bucks, mike had a water due to never trying caffeine ?? When we sat downstairs it felt as if we had known each other for years and there was no awkwardness, except for not understanding the star bucks staff as they where all foreign,
We decided to get to the gym asap which was 50feet around the corner, (i wanted to see what this guy had),As we walked into the gym i spotted "MK2004" man this guys pics just dont do him any justice the guys a monster, we said our quick hellos and off we went off to get changed and mike very kindly gave me a red vest he had bought off the net, i love it, we started by doing chins while amanda was taking pics, then over to the cable pulldowns before amanda was told to stop taking pics wtf?? there was nobody worth looking at in this gym after "MK2004" left, so she went off to sit in the cafe area, we finished off on the pulldowns which mike impressed me on, and went over to a fixed deadlift piece of equipment we done a few sets on there, then over to dead lifts which is when mike and me noticed that every guy in there was staring at us like we had just shit in there trainers lol, so we carried on finished off in dead lifts which mike out trained me on damn something to work on eh!! We then proceeded to train rear delts where mike was lifting heavier than me, We then decided to train biceps doing buddy curls, ill explain another time, but we noticed in the gym a little mexican looking dude with the most funny looking TIGHT white shorts we couldnt help cracking up as he was strutting his stuff around the gym and staring over lol, after the buddy curls we agreed that we where done as arms where dead.
We then went to soho for some lunch, we then went on a secret mission around london him in the buggatti and me and manda riding in our DB7, we accomplished the mission but not to liking but it then ended up in the pub after walking around soho and not noticing we where in the biggest sex district in london, so we went to china town to a pub which was annoying as we could hear each other talk really, so we went to a little quiet backstreet pub and met a lady who was extremly happy we couldnt blow up condoms with our noses lol random people eh, we then had to part our separate ways and go home, which was really hard as i kept hugging mike goodbye and not wanting to leave, what a fantastic guy he really is, im so glad i stumbled across this site and made a friend for life, so thank u bb.com and mike for meeting up with me at last, i cant wait for him to come and visit me up north so he can then meet the gang (hercules53, kylereece_92) and we can all go training, really looking forward to it mike thank u once again
Oh and all day we talked about our absent friend carla who couldnt meet us as she has another secret assignment in canada to dispose of oddjob so good luck with that, we where thinking of ya

So proud to call you friend and fellow agent.
Your adventure sounded magical: toilets, gym, red shirts, fast cars, hugs and all. So happy you got to meet your brother the Intrepid Mr. Tegid aka Mike. I so enjoyed reading about it and the pics and video. Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! Love you both!
Shane, you really got to me right at the end though.
Love ya bro.

It was utterly thrilling to meet Shane and Manda I read the comments above have been very much appreciated. I have an enormous amount of respect for Shane- and really want to thank him for the hope he’s brought into my life.
I never had a brother but if I could - or if I choose one, it’d be Shane.
Kookla - I have every intention of meeting up with you as well - I don’t know when exactly but I’ll swear I’ll come across there with Shane and we’ll cause as much havoc as we did in London!

I wanted you and others to see how much this writing means to me The comment I wrote above was done about 20 minutes after an epileptic seizure so I was having trouble finding the right words.
I still am.
Love ya, bro.
