Of Course Smiley is doing it.....
WHo wouldn't want to Hike every weekend from jan to may, with ever increasing weigh. Then you hike from 6 to Late, sleep on top of a windy tor, then when you've been rudly awakened by your Cap'n at Stupid o'clock, hike till 5 or till you get back....
Oh and did i mention the hundreds of meatres of Vertical Gain (to Normal folk, hills)
Yeh.... Great times

Okey dokey gang. I've just had an email from Bob Luckett about TT 2007. The training starts on Jan 7th at Rodway common at 8.45. If you havnt done it before you need to attend at least 1 of the first 3 weeks (7 / 14 / 21st Jan), for an 8mile walk. Details will be given when we resume Des and i've got the parental consent forms. If you want one, pm me and i'll email it to you.
For those who dont know anything about it, well:
Its a hiking competition held over the 12/13th may 2007 for teams of 6 yps aged between 14 and 20. each team must walk a selected route of either 35/45/55 miles over the 2 days 35 for 14/15 yrs 45 for 46/17 yrs 55 for 18-20 (or 17yrs if youve previously completed the 45)
There will be a practice walk every weekend from Jan to May
All you need to bring to start is: Boots, waterproofs, warm clothes, food, drink and a daysack to keep it in (ask anna to make your sarnies!)
Its a fantastic comp and loads of Des have done it - and if you're really lucky, you might get to share a tent with Shrub or Bouncer!

Spelling mistakes??? where?!
And "go's" isnt even a word! Goes is!
And the info was taken from the ten tors information i was given by the people who run it.
ps its taken me 10 mins to write this as shrub has been annoying me on msn, so i've blocked him! ;D
EDIT: shrub is a willy who has deleted his post, just to try and make me look stupid! Well it doesnt work - i can do that by myself!

For those who dont know anything about it, well: Its a hiing competition hels over the 12/13th may 2007 for teams of 6 ypsaged between 14 and 20each team must walk a selected route of either 35/45/55 miles over the 2 days 35 for 14/15 yrs 45 for 46/17 yrs 55 for 18-20 (or 17yrs if youve previously completed the 45) There will be a practice walk every weekendfrom Jan to May All you need to bring to start is: Boots, waterproofs, warm clothes, food, drink and a daysack to keep it in (ask anna to make your sarnies!) Its a fantastic comp and loads of Des have done it - and if you're really lucky, you might get to share a tent with Shrub or Bouncer! 1) how many bad spellings can u get in one post, tch! 2) to clarify the ages, you have to be the certain age by the end of august, NOT the event, so in other words it goes in school years: 35 for yrs 9/10 45 for yrs 11/12 55 for years 12 (if u've done 45 allready) and 13+ 3)he he no farmer 46 year olds cant do ten tors, sorry mate... 4) not just anyone can share a tent with shrub, it is a special privalege given to a rare few (like smiley, six time tent-sharer, twice twas just us 2...) 5) pretty much every walk is on the sunday, so if ur busy every sat, then don't worry, u wont miss 2 many 6) and it is the best thing EVER, also, the best drug ever, but thats another story... teeheehee signing off dominent male peawilly
