Why, oh why, did I think Gatliff was a good idea this year? 4am wake up, 5am pick up, 7am start for a race I'm not entirely convinced I can actually complete :-o

luck Carp!

I thought my 5:45 alarm was early but that’s a real lie-in compared to you!

Weather appears to have taken a turn overnight. No rain was forecast when I checked last night, it’s now decidedly damp and there’s an 88% chance of rain for the next 3 hours…

Enjoy linds 😁

Good luck Carp.

I am still in bed as we have thunder and heavy rain, even the dog wouldn't want to go out yet.

One of my brothers photos seems to have gone worldwide and he is even mentioned in the article

Oooh, hope you are getting on well, Carp.

Good to see a glimmer of hope from your brother, MM. Just an awful situation
