I spotted the hoodie too! Poor fish.

What about the midgies? I get bitten to death when out with the dogs.

I had to go with miles and dollars for my comment… it would have been entirely too much work to actually look up the proper kilometers and pounds.

Delinquent, brilliant.

He’ll be half way through the dales walk and get slapped with an ASBO.

(I’m not explaining that for the yanks)

Xbox - Yeah, he claims that it was because he forgot to pack anything else when he came up, but i think it’s just because he’s some sort of juvenile delinquent.

Nat - Anything that reduces chaffing can only be a good thing.

Sam - You of all people should know that the fact that there were freshwater clams in the canal shows it is pollution free. Hurrah!

Avitable - We worked out we could have had that fish, the clams, and some wild onion that we discovered on the way. We’d have had to have eaten it all raw of course.

Penelope - The sad truth is that Sandip, the guy in the hoodie, only walked half of the way. He said he had to “go to a meeting”. Yeah ok Sandip, we believe you.

Arjan - We’re all hoping it won’t be quite as warm when we do the walk itself. But it probably bloody will be.

Jeff - $100? We use real money over here matey.

Jo - Trust me, you don’t want to see me without my shirt on.

Jason - To be fair, you do live in the middle of a desert.

Whit - I feel surprisingly ok actually. Not an ache anywhere.

(un)relaxeddad - Actually it wasn’t dead, just very unwell. It was floating on the surface and swimming round in circles. Using my expert knowledge gleaned by once owning a goldfish I diagnose a problem with it’s swim bladder.

That’s a very dead fish. The glass half-full would be that it must have been alive for a period of time in that canal to have got that far. I also remember climbing Mount Snowdon when I was 18 and it was covered in clouds - which route where you thinking of? And a hooded top may well come in useful. Or am I getting mixed up with K2?

The real question is how do you feel today?

23c is hot!?! I would like to invite you to our fair city in mid-July so you may experience 43c.

Either way, don’t forget to drink plenty of water :)

Hmmm, what a lovely dead fish. And I would have loved to have seen the horse drawn canal barge and had a lecture on clams from a neckerchiefed man. Sounds riveting. ;)
Well done though, and you all kept your shirts on. I thought all British blokes whipped off their shirts at the slightest hint of sunshine. Or is that just where I live??

3 guys:
“I say 75 miles.”
“No way, I give him 50.”
“Dude - $100 says he won’t make 35.”

Dan:
“What are you guys talking about?”

3 guys:
“Just discussing how long it takes until you look like this.”

I kid!… I kid because I love!
