    If you haven't already done so have a look at Bob's website: www.bobwightman.co.uk

    Also have a trawl through this section of the forum. Loads of info and 10,000ft per week thread not bad place to start

    A March sound sounds novel. I like the sound of it. Good luck and wekcome to the forum btw

    Loads of info on Bob's site and plenty of talk on this part of the forum.

    Feel free to check out my blog linked on my signature last year documents my attempt. Some links to others with BG info also.

    Re: Bob Graham Round

    while we're on this, could someone briefly explain the merits or otherwise of clockwise versus anticlockwise

    also, starting times: am I right in thinking most attempts start in the evening or at night?

    I realise it must be to do with which section you hit during dark, but it's always confused me a bit why people don't start at 9 a.m. right after a good night's sleep, rather than at the time you might usually be going to bed ...

    Daz, don't do that, not if you want it to count for membership.
