Final planning of the event is now taking place. final pre event hikes are now being done and all the backup is in place a good number of teams have entered ,have you ?
I like camping, but last night it was cold and wet. I set up the tent and made the mistake of leaving the groundsheet out in the open when it was raining.
We went to the Peak District to do our Duke of Edinburgh Award. They basically dropped us off and we made our own way. We stayed in a hostel the first night and camped the second night.
We went sea snorkelling. We camped out the night before, then went diving in the morning. We could see sea slugs, starfish and my mate came up with an octopus hanging off him!
This is my first camp. I got a bit muddy and cold last night, but I felt better in the morning after breakfast. It’s my birthday today as well, so I feel alright.
