Very true actually AR. Hadn’t thought of that. My skiing technique is pretty decent - particularly pole planting on steep descents

As I joined Crosby beach by the entrance to the Mersey about 10 last night, I saw MSC Virtuosa, 181541 gross tonnage :-o heading into Liverpool Bay and bound for Greenock.

6334 passengers, 1704 crew, and 16 decks. Commissioned in Feb. this year. The sheer scale & size left me open mouthed :-o

That looks like my idea of the seventh circle of hell.

I'm at work. Very tired but legs surprisingly OK except for doing stairs and picking stuff off the floor. Luckily I work on the ground floor.

Morning.

Not a big fan of cruise ships but that's pretty impressive.
Nice to see you Dave, photos look fab!
Hope the club works out AR.

A good if mine who also completed the 100 at the weekend said he found it hard to actually run much because the paths were so rocky. I can see what he means in that last picture.
