    If I don't get in, I'll have to find another one. I reckon I'm
    addicted now... :-)

    If you don't get in you can always make your own challenge : the PGO
    Challenge :-). It doesn't *have* to be organised.
    If you need any assistance in the planning stage I can be of help using my
    Anquet cd-roms. And perhaps some other map-software users (Paul?) could
    support you. Just let me know.

    That's very kind, and very much appreciated :-) If I don't get in
    then I'll give you a yell. Thank you :-)

    Best wishes,

    A cloff! is what you wipe yer minotaur or keyboard with when the
    drink of choice gets spluttered all over it or them. As for
    innit - issa worm at the end of a sentence, innit.

    Ahaa... thank you :-)

    You noticed, eh?! :-)

    Just very slightly... So when can we entice you down to Wales?
    Specifically, south Wales?

    As soon as there's a bash, I'm there... I'm very much looking forward
    to meeting y'all :-)

    Oh dear, more shedspeak. The cloff is the cleaning cloth used to remove BA
    from the minotaur after one has read an especially witty post. The shed
    only has one (which must be pretty grubby by now, since no true sheddi
    could ever spare the tuits to clean it) so it has to be passed around.

    Thank you :-)

    Ooh, a challenge! Right then, when's the next Beacons
    Expedition? Judith, can we entice you along as well?

    I'm building up to a mini-exped of my own. Apparently there's going
    to be a meteor shower (Leonids) on 17th November, which is a
    Wednesday, so I was wondering about taking the whole week off and
    heading for the Brecons.

    I've made no plans at all, yet, so don't question me on the detail!

    But, yes, there will be cake .... unless I'm backpacking for the week.
    Too heavy!

    There was a time when my reasons for walking were a mixture of wot u
    wrote above. Now I walk to go to the Coop and get some
    bacon/eggs/milk/sugar. I look forward to Peewiglet's next LDP so I can
    reminisce some more :-)

    Oh come you saddo! That's not the Graham I remember! Why don't you
    come along to the next expedition and reminisce for real!

    Chris? Are you there? What's happening regarding the Leonids then?
    Moelwyns? Gower? Beacons?

    Anyone else interested?

    As if! BTW, the moot on the other NG is in Manchester, just in
    case you'd missed that bit. Am I right in thinking it's not too
    far for you to get to?

    I did see it, ta. And, you're right, it's not too far away.
    Manchester could NEVER be too far away!

    It's on FA Cup 2nd round day, though, so I may have to be somewhere
    else. However, on yesterday's performance, being beaten 4-5 at home,
    we'll probably get knocked out in the 1st round on 17th Nov!

    - physical challenge

    A number of people have mentioned the physical aspect of it, the
    challenge and the exercise. Personally I find that to be a pain in the
    [censored] (but with beneficial side effects). If I could climb a mountain
    with no physical effort at all I probably would.

    Probably just as well I can't - I need the exercise!

    The Moelwyns are very good in winter.

    This is not really planned as an official expedition. Me, Chris Street
    and a few friends camped in the Moelwyns to watch the Leonids a few
    years back, and Chris recently suggested a repeat. I don't mind if
    anyone else comes along but it's midweek so hardly convenient as an
    expedition in the usual sense, and it will be wild not a proper campsite
    (although we've had wild expeditions before...)

    I welcome the views of the group.....

    So I can sing "The Happy Wanderer" out loud without being locked up or
    assaulted.

    It happens every time. Fol-da-reeeeeee!

    Get with the program Judith .. Gosh, I thought I was square singing
    'Heart of the Sunrise', but at least I'm only a quarter century behind
    the times. 8>.

    We can always combine our knowledge. Maps, campsites, GPSwaypoints, SYHA,
    experience in the field etc. I'm sure there are some members in this
    newsgroup who know much more about Scotland than I do and would like to be
    of help. And I love to search the internet.
