For a peak district forecast :eek::eek::eek::eek:

If the forecast for v strong Westerlies comes true wonder if more people will be tempted by the direct route to Ringing Roger just to get out of the wind?

I will be very happy if I reach Mam Tor in 2.15 and Jacob's Ladder in 3.15 but with a sore foot and the weather forecast I am not optimistic. Will give it my best effort though and hopefully the three days
lay-off because of my sore foot should mean I am well rested!

See you Sunday, Ali

Cheers, Ali. Maybe you can run round with RichT. He's got a pot on his leg having broken it last weekend trying to keep up with his 6 year old daughter running off Park Hill (Ingleborough).

All the best to both of you for a speedy recovery.

Daz - can you promise that? As a soft south coast lad out for the first time in the peaks I'm getting just a tad concerned. (Where's that worried smiley when you need it?)

Cheers - Raymond

:eek: Just looked at that weather forecast.

Not looking forward to marshalling in those conditions.
Will have to invest in a pretty hefty Guinness jacket tomorrow night!

I prefer the first bit of the original quotation:

Matthew 20:16: So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.
