Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.

The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

Derby Tup Jan 2018 5:08pm, 19 Jan 2018 24,627 posts	Quote Pin Derby Tup Leo was an absolute legend. A dear friend of ours (who might have posted here in the past) went to see him before her successful round for inspiration and inspiration is what she got. RIP Leo
Derby Tup Jan 2018 5:11pm, 19 Jan 2018 24,628 posts	Quote Pin Derby Tup I’ve just checked and Leo was one of the two guys who first did the Lakes, meres and waters run in Lakeland in the early 80’s. Not for the faint-hearted and not many more have done it since

Northern Exile May 2018 4:35pm, 7 May 2018 4,654 posts	Quote Pin Northern Exile This is true. I think it's been kept very quiet until now, but the sad details are beginning to seep out. There is bound to be lots said on social media about this, so I hope everyone can refrain from finger pointing and let the family concerned come to terms with their loss 😔

Northern Exile May 2018 10:08pm, 7 May 2018 4,656 posts	Quote Pin Northern Exile It's desperately sad. I imagine it will be well-known by now, but the poor lad who lost his life was one of a Polish pair and I understand it was a leg 3/4 recce rather than a full-scale attempt. I'm told he was found in the Green Gable area, so really not far from safety
