Enjoy yourselves. The photos look fantastic if you brave the original plan.

Didn't manage to get anything organised to be down there, and it was probably a good plan anyway. Things have been a bit busy and I still have lots of catching up to do, as well as being distracted by a cute 3-month-old. And I have a cold nicely brewing - legs feel a bit achey this morning too, so I would probably have dropped out even if I had committed to it.

Next year?

Ok arrived not one bit of snow in sight 8 degrees dry rds but fark me the car only just made it up some of the hills lol

 

[Kins]

Snow still up the tops of the mountains the further up the valley you go. Wind has been a killer last few days, hope it buggers off.

Does the Sainsbury's have a cashpoint? It would save me a diversion on the way to the station...

 

[Cheshire Celt]

Yes but don't worry I have cash and you can get it tomorrow if you want

 

[theclaud]

Cool. I borrowed an emergency tenner from petty cash in the meantime. Does anyone have a charger for an HTC phone? I'm not usually this disorganized- thank f**k I'm not the ride leader.

 

[Cheshire Celt]
