This may not seem a very important news story but I'm going there next week-end to do the Snowdonia Challenge, a 3 day walking "walking" competition with work.

I've been training and in the last 2 weeks (I suspect not enough) and in that time I've walked/climbed up the 4th highest mountain in England (2 weeks ago) and the highest last week-end and believe me walking up mountains is not for the faint hearted. Last week was particularly brutal, the highlight (?) being a 1000 feet climb up Skew Gill pictured below. This is not us by the way, I was actually scared shitless and in no position to either take or pose for a photo!

Oh well. it's being nice knowing you.
