Murphy is showing up on Sunday morning, so the Met Office says.

Anyone else going as it was sold out quite a while ago?
Checked out the route on my OS (with one section I couldn't quite understand) and it looks good!

If I get any decent pictures, I'll post them up on [url=www.muddybum.co.uk]muddy bum[/url]

It does look like it might be damp... might need to take a proper jacket.

Is there a compulsary kit list? I'm sure there was last year but can'tfind any notes about it. Don't want to be turned away becase I forgot something like a first aid kit?

Cloudy. Various clouds.

That made me smile!
The Met Office predicts heavy rain.

I'm taking my Bowens portable studio lights and will set up on a hill side somewhere, so dark, brooding skies are actually to be encouraged as I want to have a play about with a couple of soft boxs and some more harsher lighting attachments, which increase contrast and might well suit the conditions.
