Yes,a great weekend & sorry I ruined Dave J`s sleep!!!!!!
Thanks to Pete C for the quiz & to Jules for singlehandedly winning it for Johnny & the Hurricanes.Apologies to Saam`s team if I upset anyone.
I would encourage folk to complain to YHA about the food standards & service.If YHA are setting this as a national menu & standard they are finished.The last 2 meals we had were very good quality & value....this weekend was appalling.
On a personal note I was pleased (¬ a little relieved) to complete a category A fellrace after a 6 month hiatus with my ticker.I was dead last after 20 minutes & really struggling (I suspect my medication depresses my heart rate & is preventing getting going properly) but after that I felt OK & passed a few & even caught Brian J,though proved unable to keep with him on the flat at the end.Thanks to the Stretton Skyline group for their enthusiastic(not to sat crazed) support & to the walkers for somewhat saner help.
We should do more of this,if only to hear Tucker`s polemics about hostels.
