Think about Connie.<BR/><BR/>The Lodestone has served us well for the last two thousand years. to abandon her now would be foolhardy in the least.<BR/><BR/>These 'MAPS' are just a fad. Modern frippery. They will let you down when the going gets tough. <BR/><BR/>Besides, have you chewed on Connie lately? Mutton dressed as lamb, dear boy.<BR/><BR/>Pieman:<BR/>For pity's sake dump the virtual trousers. For Connie's sake.<BR/>LOL (Cool!)Alan Slomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17966543499033330765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-2960627835404011272008-03-19T22:48:00.000+00:002008-03-19T22:48:00.000+00:00I'm doing it without trousers.

I think this is sufficient.<BR/>I'm now going to put "LOL" at the end of this posting because it is cool.

I will instead be aquiring a MAP. I have been advised that this is the very dogs b***ks and will reduce my pack weight to the tune of at least a flitch of hog's flesh. Do not worry on my account. As a precaution I am fattening up Connie, whom I intend to eat along the wayHumphrey Weightmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10235885516784008589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-27586506423025879042008-03-19T10:06:00.000+00:002008-03-19T10:06:00.000+00:00P.LonkerP.LonkerRobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010453929003454683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-11825368208026719042008-03-19T06:24:00.000+00:002008-03-19T06:24:00.000+00:00I was going to post a comment similar to George's ...I was going to post a comment similar to George's above. Funny enough I was just about to read that thread when I read your post! I hope this is being bought to the attention of Roger. If the guy had kept his mouth shut, there is not much anyone could do about it. But seeing as he is being so vocal about it, surely something has to be done.<BR/>I love his comment about the GPS. Admittedly I don't know the model GPS he has, unless it is one with OS maps on, then it will be useless to him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22496677.post-4093157082941488102008-03-19T00:34:00.000+00:002008-03-19T00:34:00.000+00:00He should be either told that he walks with map(s)...He should be either told that he walks with map(s) and compass and if not then should be told "sorry we do not think you are responsible enough to be doing this."<BR/><BR/>Numpties like this shouldn't be able to make posts like that and then be allow to attend the event.Londonbackpackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14033452922754263301noreply@blogger.com
