For a peak district forecast

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?

[Swoop]

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!

Sorry to hear that Geoff, me and my plaster cast were looking forward to running round with you.

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.

No problem - will you be wearing a bandana?

You'll easily make 3.15 - I managed 3.20 last year & you're way faster than me!

Yep! Dark blue bandana, unles it's cold then dark blue hat, unless its very cold then dark blue balaclava.

Ta.

Many are cold but few are frozen.

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

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!

Many are cold but few are frozen.

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.
