    Your argument hangs on the flawed premise that Tom's entry into the Loft was down to his ability to act 18.

    Liking the Duddon idea. Seems to be summery enough, but outside the main season. So what? We find our own accommodation as per XOTF, then hit the town?

    Okay, means less organisation on my part *breathes sigh of relief*. I guess 'Fell-Fest' would take a bit more than the couple of months we'd effectively have get off the ground.

    And yes Steve, social runs are the future, so if TT can't act 18...tumbleweed...maybe he can have another crack up Sharp Edge.

    So what next, do I hire a PA?

    You need a date and a list

    I for sure won't be able to do anything in the summer.Working weekends, almost every weekend,all weekend, from Easter onwards. Had a hard enough time getting Easter off last year to do Anni Waltz and the weekend of the 3 Peaks CX...

    BUT...we wouldnt all be together if it was set around merrys BG as we'd obviously be on different legs (but if it was a race we wouldnt all be together anyway).
    But #2.....if it was on the BG we wouldnt be able to do a social thing after it because of the time differences we'd all be running...whereas if it was a race it would give everyone the chance to be together in the evening.
    Aye, pick a different weekend, i'll most likely be a bit knackered after
