Conditions:

Rain giving way to low cloud & mist, very wet & muddy.

Stats:

A faff free night but missing GPS geekery

Notes:

A ridgy route to get good views of fireworks – shame about the low cloud.

PTD & Dan manage to get temporarily lost on kerridge ridge

Al Fresco Duchars at the Lord Clyde

Burnt Caramel Black Sheep, followed by excellent pedigree & Cumberland ale at the Springwood.

TJ & PTD compare notes on the $80 lights – impressive performance & even better value!

Shaun returneth…and gets hip tips from Eric

Stunt shows bare cheeked evidence of the dangers of rowing and a red haze descends on the ROI’ers!
