I agree, sawdoc, well done all round. And thanks also to PBO, Jake, Eric and others for this valuable forum. For those of us for whom a crossing is a serious glint in the eye, it is the existence of the challenge, the achievements of the participants, and the opportunity to communicate that encourages and inspires us. I'd like to see this forum on the links page at jesterinfo.org. It has been my only consistent point of reference for jester news and opinion over the years. PBO provide the service for free (I confess I haven't bought a magazine of any kind for years! ) and it would be great if it carries on from strength to strength. Great work with the roundups Jake , I can't wait for the participants to write in with their experiences, and no less for the contributions from those who retired or are still working towards their goal. Robin.
