Thanks, I have cut down the whole trip down to 15 minutes but being high quality it is taking its time to upload.

Using my phones GPS I mapped the route we took

That Tecnohull looked absolutely fabulous today, and flies, as did that lovely Scorpion Sting - motivation to start saving !

[lakelandterrier]

Alex, many thanks for organising such a great trip, you've done an outstanding job getting so many together for this cause.

Just got home & snugged Aquahound - and two very tired Aquapups - down for the night.

Fantastic day, we have never done such a long / intrepid trip, so really good to have done it.

Also great to see so many boats, and meet fellow ribnetters.

There will be more cash coming from from pledges I have had and once I've hawked the photos (especially of the fox) round at work.

I think Mrs T may make a large donation if the photos of her pizza eating habits can be bought before being posted!
Now finally for a well deserved G&T.
