Oh dear.

11 degrees, dry and hardly a breath of wind - I must have died and gone to heaven. But will it last?

Keeping my fingers crossed for you Frodo.

Hey everyone I am actually enjoying this week of laziness I mean tapering. Been packing tonight as I'm on the way up tomorrow afternoon from the south west.

I will be wearing my club vest on saturday, light blue with Hogweed Trotters on it

FF -  last year we had the use of the football clubs showers/changing rooms or should I say T huts, (opposite electric mountain car park) they were very basic but did the job.

28/10/2010 at 09:28
I think the football club shower block has been knocked down - I am not sure if it has been fully rebuilt yet!!
28/10/2010 at 09:34
Can we not use that great big bath? Bit deep and a tad cold I know, but just stay near the edge
28/10/2010 at 09:36
Right, I'm just minutes from taking that step out the door to find out if Saturday is a goer or not.

Wish me luck
28/10/2010 at 09:46
good luck frodo

It was probably taken down before it was blown down ct. I know that it is being rebuilt and, last time I looked, there was scaffolding around it.

(hope the it is a green light for Saturday frodo)

28/10/2010 at 10:06
Good luck Frodo....hope it goes well
28/10/2010 at 10:11

Hope its gone well and we'll be seeing on Saturday

28/10/2010 at 11:00
Thanks guys
Ok, so it's not a straight no, but it's not a yes either: the knee is holding up, but the left calf still feels wrong.
Jury is still out.
