Good luck to all participants, on our way up this afternoon, hope to see some of you at the start tomorrow.:thumbup:
Considering what we have been having, that does sound quite good!

There's a load of stuff on sale at the event start - or at least there is when it's in the community centre! So if you have forgotten anything don't worry, you can usually get it at the event.
I might have a few hours spare on saturday but I'm not sure yet - if I have, is it ok to just turn up at Threshfield and offer to help out? I live not far away and having done the event a few times it'd be nice to put something back.
Forecast isn’t looking too bad. I am a bit worried about getting cold overnight – looks like it could get a bit nippy.Quote:

Sarcasm, cynicism and irony aside...
First time I've entered the Fellsman - really excited and looking forward to it.
I'm sure everyone's going to have a great time.
Take care and I'll see you out there...
Shock, horror, probe! Rain in the Yorkshire Dales alert!!!! ;)Quote:

If we all save up our jam jars (I have at least 50) we could fill them with rain water and send them to the southerners to water their gardens with now they have a hose pipe ban.;)
