Well at least she can keep Kevin company at the back of the runs while Starkey and Anthony and others disappear in the distance.

LOL! If she's the same person from 3CR who does the Treasure Hunt thing, I envisage her as a kind of Annabel Croft character.

I concur. Mr. Head should definitely show himself on the morning of that fateful day.

I should point out I work in Amersham, & Live in a place called Wendover in Buckinghamshire. I put my location down as Amersham because its my nearest tube station. Sorry! :?

Shame we dont have a Tardis, otherwise we could wind our clocks back to 1961 and then Dick could wave us on our way.
We would of course start in Aylesbury and pass through Wendover on our way to Amersham.

From discussions with my quiz master one of the oldest tube challenges Aylesbury was not the favourite starting station Ongar was many moons ago.

Wendover. There's a nice arm of the Grand Union Canal under restoration from Marsworth way. I wonder if they're getting to opening the second section yet.

I think we've had rain on most of our attempts anyway, one of us (mainly Ping Pon) slips over! :oops:
But hopefully the forecast changes for Friday (Fingers Crossed)
