Default Outward Bound

Just got back from a outward bound course in the lake district as I had to do one as part of my Audi apprenticeship. Remind me to never ever do that again!


Jumping in freezing cold water and swimming back to shore blue in colour, climbing a mountain for 8 hours where it was 70mph winds, blizzard's of snow head on in your face and 10m visibility followed by getting stuck in a bloody cave gap because of being 6 ft 4.

Coming home to technology and realising how much I miss civilisation.

What a crap week!

Oh just the best! The only good thing was drooling over the roads and wishing I had the bike there!
