Re:

Realized this morn it's been a wee while since i got a proper soaking so headed hillward in the refreshing permadrizzle...ended up off-piste on a pine needle carpet bouncing around on a 50-year old Brooks B17. Won't be using that again. As a result my conkers are now ruined, and it's not even September yet...
