1400 hours London time is whatever London time IS relative to GMT!

OK compadres, good shootin! *urges horse off the trail to the right and quietly rides off*

Disgruntled Ape Posted Jun 7, 2002
Ook ook. [I'll guard the prisoner, You two guard the Ape until the attack starts.] *As he swings up his rifle and trains it on Two Jellos, the other apes promptly tackle and sit on The Ape*

Styx said 14:00 GMT!! And it's only 13:00 now. I hardly had time to collect any intelligence from the NG Corral.

Amos the Ranchhand (and Driver) Posted Jun 7, 2002
*holds watch up to his ear*
*shakes watch*
Dang!
Would someone pass me a cup of coffee? We have another hour and I need to calm my nerves!

That's better. Now I have time for a and a sit down and I can tell you what I've found out so far about what faces us in Peta Gulch.

Billy the Kid Posted Jun 7, 2002
*has been carefully threading his way through the tall first-growth trees, counting the rooftops as he goes, and now becomes aware of voices. He dismounts and ground-ties Dandy, then moves forward stealthily*
*hears a sound behind him and draws, looking around and upward for apes*

Coniraya Posted Jun 7, 2002
*looks arounf for someone to pass the message to about fourteen tacky cheaters and realises she is the last one*
I hate cheaters, what were they playing? Although Cluedo is very easy to cheat at

Garius Lupus Posted Jun 7, 2002
*Gets on his horse, ready for the charge. Ties the reins to the saddle horn to free both hands. Draws both six-guns.*
The Straight Trail
Coniraya Posted Jun 7, 2002
*gets settled and braced at the coach window with crossbow at the ready*
I could use fire bolts, then if there is the faintest chance of hitting a barn door or building, they will have some effect.

Amos the Ranchhand (and Driver) Posted Jun 7, 2002
Seven minutes.
*draws up the reins in his gloved hands*
