OK, so Jax will be at the Ballet and you want us round to be in a Play? I vote for Phil as Lady Macbeth.

Yep, cheers, it's in the diary and I'll try my best to be there. Confirm a bit nearer the time.

Good lads ....................Jax has promised to do a vat of "GRULE"

Fancy doing a bit of route bashing so bring an axe

Personally I think Jax should come out on the bikes with us and Phil should go to the ballet.

Funnily enough, here's a pic of him practicing in front of the Shak:

We'd done over a couple of hour and covered at least 5kms so we stopped at the Boars Head for a brake

Fighting our way to the highest points.................over moss covered bolders , slippy as hell .......you can't see the drop properly here but its a good 20 or 30 ft cliff edge
