This was attempt one of four on this day. It was a fine late winter day with sun and a bracing breeze. The deluge of rain had stopped for once, but the ground was still quite wet. It looked as though the hashpoint might be flooded but after a small detour round some marshland bog, a dry route was located. From the local airport, there were turboprop noises in the distance and also quite a lot of traffic noise from the A45 and A46 roads. This was a pleasant spot in spite of the noise. How often do you get a perfect day? Almost never? Well this was really nice except for a streaming head cold. Yuck!
