ParticipantOpened ok for me on iPad, chose view rather than download, not sure if that would make any difference though?

ParticipantWell did you two get a place ? Del did not get a place
Peter D Mclardy
ParticipantNice one Philip, yes I believe that Keswick would be the better (and cheaper) choice. It’s only a short drive to Grassmere with no pinch points. We will be staying at Braithwaite just along the road a bit. Will keep fingers crossed you all get through. I believe you should all know by Monday 👍

ParticipantGet in there Del, hopefully get through, not that I want to see you in pain………. Actually—— oh please let him through 😉😎

ParticipantOk Alan, that’s four in total in the ballot, good luck.

ParticipantNo worries Mikey, would have been good if you were able to make it. We have three in the ballot so hopefully they all get through. Yes it will be a fight and a struggle, the bigger the cassette the better, pacing yourself is my thought as the toughest is the last bit. Good luck with whatever you do.

ParticipantI’ve also entered and chose the same charity, looks like loads of winter training ahead, let’s do this !!
Peter D Mclardy
ParticipantYes I’m also up for this

ParticipantHi Folks,
An update for your diaries. The Fred Whitton will take place on the 11th May 2025, the main ballot will start on the 2nd December and close on the 11th December. Ballot places will be announced on the 16th December. Cost for this is £99
There is a special charity entry which guarantees entry, this takes place ahead of the main ballot on Fri 1st November and costs £199. This is the route I am going on as I don’t want to take the chance with a ballot.On a side note, a few of us are are doing a recce for the Fred on the 9th Oct this year (2024) looking to sample some of the delight of the course. Meeting will be at Braithwaite, all welcome.

ParticipantAlan B. Yes the lodges are very reasonable, I had checked them out but didn’t mention as the minimum was as you said. Marie and I will be there 29th Sept till 13 Oct so will be around.

ParticipantSafe as hooses Del, salt of the earth up this way 😉
