Just got back home after partaking in a couple of bevs with the snobs in the pub(and me smelling like a warm horse)

I cannot walk at all totally and utterly goosed, water running over me boots in rivers at times etc

any way did it and never ever again

Thanks again folks

smaller than ever

What a great idea, if anyone is interested its for our hospice, pm's welcome

piece in the mail would be nice Frank

so far we hoped to have raised about 800, a grand would be special

Good night all

Well done Dugoutpaddy a fantastic effort!

My lad has just returned from his Air Cadet jaunt up Roseberry Topping and he and his pals are all walking like a cross between Charlie Chaplin and a penguin. He said they got a right good soaking yesterday like!

Once again well done and enjoy that bathtime brandy!!

Cheers Lord Smythe

the only person I saw near Roseberry was a little lad with what I think was his grandad, they flew past me about 6:15 ish!

And that pub at the bottom... a bought a pint of blanc beer cos one of the lads said it was nice...

£3:60 a fooking pint!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and what I said about never again..well maybe just one more long 'un left in me

Excellent work Paddy. You should be proud of yourself. How long did it take you then? And how many stops? I like the idea but I'm sure it would half kill me

It took about 12 hrs, but that is because some of the lads who were also doing the walk were animals who do challenges like this for sport

Hence the reason my body aches so much, as most of my training was in the greenies! I did pick up some very useful tips tho if you are thinking about having a go at something like that and that is get practising, get the proper gear and invest in a couple of trekking poles absolutely vital for the last 8 miles (in my case) as I don't think I could have done it with out them.

Can't wait til me boots dry out now!
