Voted (me, but really that is both of us) It's all a bit variable as if next nibling arrives early I'm on point to look after our niece!

it must be best if each would-be participant votes as in the end, it's a popularity contest and the date with the most votes will win (but the Editors' decision is final, no matter what).

Do you have a route, distance and start/end points in mind Chris?

I’m planning to do a recce on Wednesday McGoohan to check which bridges are open to the public, not just student access to college land.

I’ve provisionally planned a route of around seven miles but with plenty of scope to shorten, and also extend for the more hardcore.

I’ll run these by Chris later this week as he’s much more experience than I have with regard to these events.

No... I was thinking more in terms of where to head for in terms of transport. There's a P&R 'quite' near Oxford Station & therefore t'Thames.
