Yes thanks ultra for organising yet another great OD weekend was nice to meet all the new faces & catch up with the others 🙂🙂

Thanks Ultra -Im afraid I cant think of you as David or Dave - I had a fab time. Sorry I couldnt stay for the Sunday but Im glad the sun shined on you all.
Fantastic organisation and the quiz was inspired if impossibly difficult.😀

Thanks David, and to everyone for such a great weekend ... the views (wow David!!!), the weather and so much laughter. Sorry I missed saying goodbye, so sending a huge hug with this message, and look forward to seeing you all at some point very soon 🙂 x

Brilliant weekend and fantastic weather.x

Top weekend dude....

What an excellent introduction into the group. Thank you all for the wonderful welcome you showed me, I had a great time. Well done David, a triumph 🙂

Thanks for the great walks David. Lovely to meet up with some great people and say hello to some recent additions. Sorry I never got to say goodbye properly to everyone but I hope to see you all soon. Hope BlueJohn feels better soon. Thanks to all for all the giggles and Davem - look out for the photos!!! 😈😈

A marshmallowtastic introduction to OD, thank you for the warm welcome and laughs along the way! Thanks to UDC for your impressive organisation and to all those who helped me on my first meet. Special thanks to BJ for helping me with my tent despite his bad back - hope you're better now - and for TC for setting me off in the right direction home again 🙂 See you all again soon 😀

Thanks Dave,for such a well-organised and successful weekend. Journey home was a mere snip at 5 hours, great compared to the way up!!!Tell me, what is it about ODers that makes them all so lovely? Should be bottled!

Great weekend despite my pain, I had lots of laughs & met some lovely people. Hope to be out again on the hills & meet you all again soon. Special thanks to UDC for amazing organisation & at least we did well in the quiz...do we need to get out more, I think we did!

Excellent fab great OD weekend.Thank you so much UDC for such brilliant organisation and to everyone that made it such a great time.Meet some lovely lovely newbies and had chance to catch up with others.Beautiful walks and countryside.Quiz was great fun,just a All in All Fantastic Weekend 😈😈😈😈

Yes was thinking about you all when I weas working ☹, glad you had a great time 🙂

Wow! Why have I never been to Shropshire before? Thanks David for all your hard work in making this weekend go so smoothly and for introducing me to my new love 😉 That quiz was tricky, but great fun - and we all know who we need to sit with next time 😀. Enjoyed meeting all the new and not so new friends. (MPC you need to thank the Shropshire Satnav, couldn't have done it wthout him!)

Ok TC, thanks Haydn 😀 Thanks also for helping with putting my tent down even though you didn't seem to know where to start with yours!😀

Now, now, MPC 😉 No thanks needed, you were both more than capable of getting on the right track but it was nice of you to make me feel a tad useful 😀
I knew very well where I was with mine, cheeky ( 😉 ) I think I was just in no mood to leave that particular corner of paradise 🙂 Sorry I didn't do more to help with yours, the job was practically done when I arrived 😉

🙂I know you were perfectly able to sort your tent, but it amused me to see you trying really hard to not do it 🙂

I'm an expert at task avoidance 😀

Hi Dave, just a sincere thank you for making the weekend so enjoyable. Very well organised indeed!

oh, and forgot to mention all the lovely ODers I've met on this event. You have all made my weekend so memorable and have plucked up lots of interesting conversations with a few, and no doubt long lasting friendships too! You are all very lovely people least to say that some of us are verging on the crazy side...........no names of course!😋

Thanks Dave for a great weekend; good to meet old & new friends. Shropshire's lovely and needs more exploration.

Chris 50, hope your journey back was ok after Cadair Idris. I will try and sort some walks and post up another Shropshire weekend but no way can I live up to David's organisational skills....:~

Now I'm back from one of the most fantastic weeks I've ever had in Wales I would like thank David for the superbly organised Shropshire weekend, the weather was perfect 🙂
It was great to meet lots of new ODers at weekend and big thanks to those who joined me in Wales for the week or the odd day 🙂

Kate I'd love to go back to Shropshire..... creating a quiz is not compulsory 😀

Hey Tina, looks like you had a fab weekend in Norfolk, wish I could have been there and in Snowdonia at same time!! Believe me creating an impossibly hard quiz is least of my worries, being directionally challenged is a slightly bigger worry.... Am working on my compass skills before I risk losing a whole bunch of ODers on the sumptuous Shropshire hills🙂
