Don't worry I've already been told off by Dave Wheeler for not doing Curiosity in the authorised eliminate way!

Tom Riach should be in, adds a fine variety to the area. Not as nice now the trees have gone though.

When did they go? Noticed some odd tracks in that wood, wondered if it was offroaders or just you avoiding a walk in :)

Wow. At least you wont need to sweep the top for pine needles before you top out every time now. Although that got a bt tricky after i broke the insitu broom.

Unless those trees have been cut down it would be like a needle in a pile of pine needles. Could be another erratic anywhere. Their location can be somewhat um, what's the word for when you have no way of telling how something is going to behave? :)

oooh yeah what is that word again? i ll get it in a minute...

i dont get up that way so often so always assume local folks must have the scoop on good things, not exactly a shortage of stones in the area.

always wondered how anyone even knew tom riach was there

Yeah I wondered that too. The farr boulder was unknown until the trees were cut.
