Oh no, hope they do survive. Not done one of their events but have been meaning to for some time, heard great things about them.

That is sad. Did Giant's Head a few years ago and it was brilliant, as was the barn dance that followed! Hope they survive

I hope they survive too, I was planning on doing one of their events next year, I have only heard good things about them, off to see if there is something to purchase, the kit looks fun!

I hope they survive too. Their events are the best and the finishers medals are crazy! Andy is also a top bloke. Was planning on entering the Dark Dash Series.

That would be bad. I'm with EP on this. I have a couple of workmates who were looking for long virtual races and they might be up for that too.

Very reasonable debate and outcome FR and fuzzy, and well moderated by Fetch. We're very lucky to have such a well informed, but above all considerate, community on this site. Keep up the great work everyone. There have been some great, unintended, consequences of the pandemic restrictions on local dining - there was some great outdoor seating with cover from the elements (very much needed in Scotland) at a pub where we met some friends on Saturday. I hope it continues to be available (I think it will as there must have been some fairly substantial investment). Enjoy the relaxing restrictions everyone, and stay safe too. G |

^seconded. Very civil & respectful disagreement and neither of you should be considering muting yourselves in future.

I've just commented on the White Star post on FB to offer them a free email to my email list. It might get lost in the comments, or it might come across as spam - so if anyone is in contact with them, and can vouch for me, do let them know. I tried looking for a 'Contact Us' form on their site, but couldn't find one.
