We had to get the hell out of there it was torture 😥 , I can’t believe we survived, I forgot my headnet and Rachels was only suitable for ninja mutant midges 👿 not pigmy mutant midges 👿 …
Not to worry about the extra control – it’s all good training!
The midges do seem to be bad this year – they’ve even made an unwelcome appearance on the upper tier at Malham, normally too breezy for them. It’s a good incentive to get my project route done… Watch this space, and fingers crossed for Friday, although the weather might scupper that plan.
It wouldn’t be as satisfying if these things were easy would it?!
Well done… see you at the OMM, if not the rendezvous?
I’ve heard that the winter wasn’t cold enough to kill off as many midge eggs as usual, so this is a bad year for midges 🙁 Here’s what my ankles (and much of the rest of me) looked like when I got back: https://twitter.com/pozorvlak/status/212470224493101056/photo/1
But other than the midges and the heavy rain at the end, I had a great time: thanks for encouraging me to enter!
Makes me itchy just looking at it! 😮
It sounds AWFUL!! Well done for braving the blighters.
We were almost at the point of despair at times.
