Includes all of Andy Kirkpatrick's books, Andy Cave, Simon Yates etc... but the deal is you take them all. I could possibly bring to WRT and Stu if you wanted them for the raf...

It goes seriously downhill after page 5

I would have lent you my Spot as well but some postman beat you to it. I will send it Royal Mail so it might “get lost”

Great news Dave. Si, (Darbeze) is the other end of the bay and I'm between you both. Two local kayak clubs, Ibex in Brixham and Paignton. There's a few nice hills around too...

This year I want to try and sort my own route.

Would you guys be willing to sanity check my route ideas?

Yes, no problems. Your route seems fine to me. Carry on.
