GrantM: I was having a look at the map/course on Josh's trog. Which were the three controls you didn't spike?

StK66: Number 1 - didn't read clue properly - was looking for gully, not minor watercourse (couldn't see top of flag in the watercourse so started to suspect I was in the wrong gully system as the forest was so open).
Number 5 - not such a great route choice - crossed clearing near nthn end of track / south of pylon and found myself in watercourse west of the control coming from that angle.
Number 7 - poor map orientation at the circle and was heading into the watercourse east of the circle - wasn't too much time here though.
In fact, too long to get to circle was a bigger problem at 1. Most time was lost at 5 - very hesitant as nothing seemed to fit after crossing the fence!!.
Mistakes so typical of my lack of technical ability that is for sure.
