    6th Aug. is middle sluglet's 9th birthday, but swung the idea of my disappearing for the day past Lady Slugge last night and think I may have got away with it :thumbup:

    He wasn't ahead of Simon Booth at the time, was he?

    Others have been known to wander over towards Base Brown I believe.

    Re: Borrowdale Fell Race

    If we're all thinking thinking about the same chap here, yes he did trot off Great Gable to climb Kirk Fell in last year's race...

    He's actually notorious in our club for having started the race 6 times and only finishing once - probably due to the laws of probability, i.e. he was bound to find thew right way in at least one of his attempts...! I believe most of his other unsuccessful attempts ended on Base Brown

    He's still a great bloke
