Yep, I got my fleece today too. It's hard enough getting in on the ballot but this year there was a massive surge of applications from the masses watching the race on TV apparently, as that's when the online entry was first advertised. Didn't they get 100,000 applications within a few hours, or something mad like that? I'm the last person to decry the dreams of the indolent plumpies, being one myself, but I do wonder how many sofa-dwellers will this morning have received their acceptance magazines and think "What on earth is this....? Oh shit, I forgot I'd got a bit carried away 6 months ago..." and have no intention of training or doing the race.
