Looks bloody grand as owt that pal! Nice that the lad let's you take his pic bless him.. my two teenagers are not so willing theses days unless their hair is perfect and that. I usually get.. "dad you've got no chance"! Lol.. -
Really nice part of the Thames there at Sonning. Glen Hoddle, Theresa May live there and George Clooney has a place there too. We walked it from there down into Reading a few years back. Nice boat you've got there anyway and i hope you get a bender sorted soon!!

It's wise Mac.. very wise to pick up something like that, especially for what you'll be doing. I can share my real time location when I'm out on a bike ride from my Wahoo but you do need a signal. Same as my garmin watch. Its handy for if my Mrs ever has to recover me out of a hedge bottom or to see when I'm half an hour away and to get tea going! Lol.. I might try the budget option location detection device.. a Dora the Explorer helium balloon on a ten 10 mtr string tied to the rucksack! Small LED light optional upgrade!! F@@k.. I am really bored!! -

Cheers pal.. yes I'm 46 now and been going up there since a mid teenager and never had an accident. I did have a signal in some bits I remember clocking in with the Mr's and kids after I'd pitched up but yes, totally agree mate those batman phones that work off the satellites without a phone signal are priceless. I should have a look into them seeing as I've got nowt else to do other than being sat around all day scratching my knackers!! -

I know mate.. I feel a right nobber! Was supposed to be hitting the Lakes for a 2 nighter this month but that's on the back burner for now. Hopefully be back out in September finger's crossed! I'm thinking about the pack weight that could be a problem when the time comes.. don't know anyone with a Yak for hire do you?! Lol.. -
That is what the fckers are scared of happening! Afraid of water so won't go on a massive barge but they were OK to cross the channel on an overloaded poxy little dinghy ffs!!

It fcking was mate and I don't mind admitting it. Funny thing was later on I settled down in the tent to try and get some kip.. I couldn't find my head torch. So i had to crawl back out to where I fell using my phone light and there my head torch was on the floor. I'd gone down that hard it must have just flown off ffs!! Lol.. -

Had the Xray. No break. Just ligament damage. 6 to 12 weeks to fully heal. Excellent!! Anyone want to buy a tent?? Lol... -

Yes.. it was all going well until about 11:30 that night. I was out round the other side of the rock with my head torch off, goofing out at a cluster of lights in the distance trying to work out where they where. I turned around and took a step and fell straight down a f@@king hole. Rolled my left ankle.. I actually heard the ligaments rip when it went! Crawled back to the tent to have a look. I honestly didn't know what I was going to see.. it was f@@king painful I don't mind admitting!! I managed a few hrs kip but started packing up at 4:30 am and I was hobling along an inch at a -

Filtered water up there to save weight and room in the pack. Some nice Kinder brown!! Thought I'd lost a peg so improvised.. found out when packing up I'd put 2 pegs in together.. -

Just going back to the camp I had on my own week ago last Saturday. Started really well. Nice, but hard walk out. Hot, steep and plenty of files doing their best to p@ss me off!. Even though I knew how to get to where I'd got in mind, I used the Komoot app to plan a route and it suggested using some trails I'd not walked before so seen that as a positive. I found a YouTube video of someone camping in the same spot so I nicked a screen shot of his drone footage. Nice little spot to be fair, about as good as you'll get along the north edge of Kinder Scout.. -
Linacre mate?

Just listened to the first half today mate. Very good like you say.

Same here matey.. I'm not on any other forum. If this place ever does fold I was just wondering where the other members off here would turn up. It's not the be all and end all for me assuming that's how most people view it but it does have it's place and use none the less..

So what other forums are my fellow THL apex predator top shagging stallions using?? I've been hanging out on the Brazilian fart fetish forum but didn't recognise any of you gay lords on there. Where else do people go?? Or is it all hush hush??
-
Ahhh... the 'knackers yard' f@@king love that name!! My one lonesome braincell can't understand the format on there mate.

If this place does ever go kput.. where's everyone rocking up at?? Is there another plan 'B' forum where most folks off here will head to??

Looks tidy that mate. Do you know it's R value at all?? I've just packed to get out tomorrow and left my foil under matt out of the pack. My ul80 is rated at 1.6 which isnt too great I understand at keeping the cold from the ground getting to you. The foil matt has worked really well to be fair but I assuming the ground will have warmed up enough by now seeing as we're almost in August! -
Yep.. I'd really like to go to be honest. The comp has clashed with our summer holls last 2 years or been the week after we've got back from Devon/ Cornwall and i really didn't fancy the trek down south again! As you know we went earlier this year, just back home on Saturday.. but the Mrs is wanting to squeeze a short break in at the end of August would you believe so I can't commit to anything just yet. Belting offer that though pal thanks..

Could be 1 of 2 things mate.. Burn out from sh@gging or Magnesium deficiency! Dr Bush is at your disposal for anymore shit advice!! Lol.. hope your back to normal soon pal..?

Welcome back to the madhouse mate!!
