Derby tup remember not to stay at YHA, i seem to remember they have a curfew:p

Yeah, I'll be on for that. Funny how the original two legs of the BG has become a quick tour of Grisedale :D Not that I'm complaining, back to the main business of the day, far sooner :)

I'll definitely be there. Probably stay Monday night as well. And remember Derby Tup, they have an 11.30 curfew at the YHA so don't stay there:D

We both could be walking the way my years going. We are sorting our B&B out this week. Looking forward to it, last year was a blast.

See you all then if not before.

Turned into Yoda during the course of that sentence Al, you seemed to have. Yeesssssss.:D

Amex is in charge and I'm sure he will bollock, er correct me if I'm wrong. The plan is for a run or walk around the Coledale Horseshoe on 23rd December, followed by beer, food, beer, more beer and for the young at heart a dance and more beer in Keswick. And potentially more beer if you stay over on the night before as well.

Indeed i did a yoda there...god i really need to read before i press 'submit reply'.


Sounds good!
