Hes and Stolly own a Tipi Tent, there's pics on Stolly's blog. It's a lovely thing.

Re: BG anticlockwise 22nd June
OK here it is I was on leg 3 and leg4 with stolly and gav we were in terrible weather from wasdale when the rain stopped if it did the wind rose and after losing time on 4 called it a day at threkeld thanks lads for letting me be part of this on a good the result would have been different
Re: BG anticlockwise 22nd June
Oh dear, hard fought. Glad all are accounted for. Hit the pub anyway and plan the next attempt
Re: BG anticlockwise 22nd June
Just had news they made Threlkeld with only 3 hours and a half hours left, had atrocious conditions on legs 3 and 4, both Stolly and Gav were absolutely frozen through. A brave effort lads, unforgiving weather again:thunbdown:
Live to fight another day :)
Re: BG anticlockwise 22nd June
Glad to hear all is ok at least. Sorry to hear they had to bail out though - bummer. Weather has been so bad this last week :thunbdown:

Good effort - there'll be a time when the weather doesn't shift seasons quite as badly as this :-(
Re: BG anticlockwise 22nd June
I don't mind whether he's done it or not now. I just want to know he's okay.

Very brave effort. Sorry to hear this, but like you say, they'll live to fight another day - and they deserve a bit of luck.

Great effort by all, sure it would been thumbs up in better conditions, after being out last weekend for just a few hours, appreciate how that wind and rain knocks hell out of you, main thing is everyone's safe and well even if they are a bit pissed off.
