Another long day - 6 hours in the Adventure Peaks shop. Given my attitude to shopping (even for sports gear) it is not long before my interest starts fading and I resort to my usual tactic of just asking for 'one of everything I need and make it the best you have'...
I am going to look very shiny and new but need to avoid the potential for 'all the gear, no idea' accusations once on the course.
After that another long drive in the dark up to Onich. A small village between Fort William and Glen Coe in the Northish West of Scotland.
Swine sat nav decides to thwart my best efforts to avoid the centre of Glasgow and all my good progress on the motorway is undone as I spend a good hour crawling through the city.
