I could get lost in a straight line so even D33 is giving me a wee bit of concern!

Kim noooo you will be fine! I've got an awful sense of direction but even I've not been lost at D33.

I got lost at the D33 last year, following a guy that went straight on rather than turning right. I think a car was sitting on an arrow on the road. I reckon it cost me five minutes.

See! Oh me, hopefully everyone else around me will have done it before me and I can safely stick with them.

Kim there's only one or two bits which are vaguely confusing- and they can be easily enough recce'd. if you want I could even drive you out to Banchory and we could stop at all the junctions to show you

Ally-C you were unlucky if a car was parked over the arrow, LoonDod makes sure the course is well marked and there are marshals as well.

It was my own fault for following the guy in front tbf. A right turn after being parallel with the road on the way back between 1/2 way and the last food station.
