    Is there something wrong with how his tracker is reporting? I see about ten tracks along the Helvellyn section - it looks like a Spirograph drawing!

    Bob - I've seen this once or twice before. Just click refresh and it goes away. I think its something to do with the data coming in on GMT and then being converted to BST. I'll have a chat to rob and see if we can fix it.

    Ha ha, time programming! Anyone who thinks that writing programs dealing with time is easy hasn't done any

    Hitting refresh didn't solve it, a full reload just now did.

    18:48.. wow very good.

    On the tracking maps I've added some dots to show the summits. Kind of helpful for those not knowing the Bob. If I have something wrong please let me know.

    Aye. Stagger the man who will never do a BG finds it excellent viewing and wishes every attempt all the best.

    Best of luck to the man. Looks like time is running pretty tight at the minute.

    Either he's given up and come straight off Scafell Pike or a pacer has and taken the tracker with them
