Did you say rucksack? Do Louis Vuitton do a rucksack range? As I won't be carrying mine it doesn't matter whether mine has a waist strap surely? lol Becx

Good thinking Paul. How about a weekend in September? We could meet on a campsite and practise sleeping in tents lol

by the way, I've found out that some of the people in my company that work in Derby have a walking society - they go on hikes in the peak district. I got invited along to a 20 mile hike this weekend, but since I'm not feeling that well, I didn't think I was quite up to it ! I've asked them to let me know of future events though, they're happy for me to tag along, and I'm sure they wouldn't object if I bought a friend or 10 lol

Last time I went to the Peak district I was gasping after an hour - was ok on the downhill parts but struggled going up. Is the sahara flat or hilly? (yes - I am a bit thick!!) Jack x

Paul I work in MK so if you want to meet sometime & have a trek i'm up for it. If you know northamptonshire at all the Weandel walk is on in a few weeks time - 14th may rings a bell - distances from 10 to 26 miles walked. Tracey -x-

Paul, great idea, I would defo love to come on one of your walking expeds, as long as they wouldn`t mind a young,mad female!

That sounds good Tracey, although I have no idea where it is lol

jack The sahara varies from 'hilly' sand dunes to flat hard surface

Well i have started getting my sponsers now, i have managed to convince our account customers at work (well the ones i'v seen anyway) to take one of my sponser forms to there companies and get their staff and customers to sponser me. So i could do with my ref number to put on my forms. Only trouble i'm having is trying to get people to understand they need to give the money when the sponser and not after the event, is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

I am hoping to organise something where we all meet up and get scared witless by a presentation from the adventure company if you are all up for that but that won't be until Oct/Nov time! Any other meets are always a good idea too!! Pink xx

My grandmother is a member of a rambling group... you're welcome to tag along with her Paul? She doesn't like me very much so I won't go! lol becx

haven't actually printed a form out yet !! I've had a few donations online... will start in anger next week when I'm back at work (or maybe this weekend :) )

Paul It starts in wellingborough (down the A509 or is it the A508) web-site http://www.waendelweekend*com/ gives details Tracey -x-

Wellingborough, yes I know how to get there, used to have to go to Corby occasionally (yuck) and used to go that way sometimes. I'll check my diary lol

Registration numbers are in your inbox's now guys!! Pink xx

A presentation would be superb Pink... I'd love to meet some of these people (men!) who organise these things.... (Bec looks dreamily into the distance as she remembers Rob the outdoors adventure instructor she was once involved with.... <sigh>)

Bec... you're obsessed. That said, the presentation would be great

Becs.... you are unbelievable but you might have a fight on ya hands depending on age of instructors and i don't care who else is there!! LOL!! :O) my halo is slipping now!! :O)

Got the registration numbers. Stupid question, but what are they for ? lol

hey Bec and Pink, I want to look at the hunky men too!
