Did yoda again. More stretchy this week. Also had a potential high fell rescue ruin my pint. Managed to sort it all out before returning ahead of last orders though so win all round. Why would anyone do a winter BG record attempt in this weather?

Robinson, Hindscarth, Dale Head with young Ted. Clag down and a good cold wind but enjoyable. Came down on a new path from Dale Head which was enjoyable.
Ted announced he'd heard that Jonny Malley did the Hindscarth to Robinson leg on his BG in 11 minutes. I pronounced myself highly sceptical at the scene.

With Petey and Tedwards - From Grasvegas, up Helvellyn and back over Nethermost, Dollywagon (nice to see it in the day...) and extra credit up Seat Sandal. To be honest, the run up was lovely until we hit the icy wind on top, and we were all a bit ollocksed by the top of Seat Sandal! Great fun.

Short on time, and unsure if Id have time for anything substantial after work pre curry so did this short loop, dropping off Rachels Fell Champion trophy at LESLEYS.
