Thanks Mr D. Didn't all go to plan, but overall the time was better than I thought I would achieve. Now sitting with my feet up!

Amazing job OG congratulations. I'm so sorry I didn't get over to cheer you on & meet you. Bloomin unexpected visitors turning up........ 😠

Thats OK Noaky, it was like bedlam at the finish. Would have been really nice to meet up, but even found it difficult locating Mrs OG - and she didn't see me finish.

Thanks Poppy! Eating (and drinking) in the hotel tonight as there are lifts. Don't think I can manage stairs πŸ˜€. Walking like someone in their 80's.

The start and finish were miles apart, so Mrs OG and I had to get a bus back. It was packed so we had to try upstairs - it was comical watching and listening to the runners who had taken part, all hobbling and groaning as they tackled the steps. Not just me!πŸ˜€
