Thanks FRA.
"Fell Runner plus" just came through my letter box. Hit the matt with a thud. Shame I won't be able to read it till I get home, much, later. I won't spoil the surprise but it's got a few extra bits in.
Thanks again everybody at the FRA

I heard the postman drop it in the porch from upstairs - must have been a weight off his back!
it's here. I had forgotten all about it. What a nice surprise! Postie was very late, I'd like to think it's because of all the copies he's delivering down our street ..but I suspect not :D
Looks like a bumper edition too. My thanks to all involved in this.
Who would have thought - Merrylegs, a published poet :)
Has it got a route description for Noon Stone in it?
Where's mine i want mine give it to me! an evening of perusing maybe.

The interesting thing about the FRA 40th Anniversary Mag is the interviews from 1970 with Jeff Norman, Joss Naylor, Alan Heaton and Dave Cannon. One of the questions was:-
"Which types of footwear do you consider most suitable for fell running?".
Joss's answer was:-
"I build my own starting with a pair of football boots, then I put a pair of hockey boot tops on them for ankle support"
How things have changed!
Just got mine and looks great havn't read it yet though!:)
Just goes to show it doesn't matter what you wear on your feet ;):DQuote:

How good is the car stick...dont know which window to stick it on though.:rolleyes:
Got my photo in twice!:D

Who is that imposing man (number 218 - Dark Peak?) in the left hand photo on the cover?
I think that's the drummer from Iron Maiden.Quote:

wonder it it gets sent out in alphbetical order
think i will change my name to Aardvark
After a build up like this over the last two days that postman had better have delivered mine by the time I get home tonight!;)
It's agony reading all this. I work away during the week and know it's sat at home amongst the bills...
I usually seem to get mine later, and my surname is late in the alphabet, so I suspect you're right there, Mr Aardvark :( ;)Quote:

If you shot the postmen you cannot be called Aardvark. We all know Aardvark never hurt anyone!Quote:
