Cheers Merry. I'm starting to think about what to do footwear wise, we can expect the temperature up high to be below zero and i don't have any waterproof running shoes. If snow melts on my shoes and gives me wet feet it's going to be awful, i think all i can do is to wear 2/3 pairs of socks and spray some Nikwax onto my Walshes.

How is anyone else approaching this problem or am i the only one worrying?

Erm, might just be you. Wet feet? You've tried this fell-running lark before, haven't you?:confused::D:p Just a regular pair of trail socks for me.

I'm thinking more of what the going underfoot will be like: wet and muddy, break out the Walshes; hard and rocky, might give the Swoops a test. Will take advice from the advance Abba Recce Sqn.

Hann,

Sooo sorry; going to have to re-wrap now!
Lots of folk at work have the Samsung, bought from Amazon (tax free in Afg) but always go for the memory upgrade (roughly £25). Fits in seconds and really helps. As for your films how about a rugged external drive (also Amazon) which will hold upwards of 100 films, use like iPod. Costs ish £75.

Keep warm,

Lots of soup

xx

Ohhhhh... thanks Lola darling! Mwah!!!!

A friend tries to convince me to buy a mac, but they are 4x more expensive!

I am still feeling sorry for myself for being stuck here, in stead of having fun up in the Lakes... will miss you :(

xxx

P.S. this may sound silly, but how do I get the films onto the external drive???? No drive on the netbook and the dvd's I have cannot be copied... so I'd rather have an external dvd/cd drive to be honest... seems easier?

Crumbs! I've not packed yet!:eek:

Phew! Job's a good un. Bound to have forgotten something.:rolleyes:

On a worrying note, just necked some Beechams All-In-One after a couple of hot flushes and some difficulty swallowing in the last hour.:eek: I'm sure I'll be reet.

Would like an early night, but got to pick BH up from her work's do at 12.
*yawn*

Edit. Phone call from BH: Make it 1 o'clock. :rolleyes:
