That news was on here and on Nicks site a few WEEKS ago!

[katrina]

Yes I agree the Snowdon Rocks news has been on here for a couple of weeks as I posted it - but Nick hadn't confirmed until yesterday. I'm actually the organiser of the event :D

Perhaps I should have kepted it a secret........

[scotpaulabear]

Awww hey look it's all good, at least it's all confirmed everywhere now :biggrin: and you have another very talented traveling companion now, Katrina :wink:
(grrrr keep looking into ways I could do this and it's not working :blushing: )

Well make it work my dear bear :D it is going to be a fab day and there are other bits and pieces were trying to do on the day that have yet to be confirmed.....

[HarperPR]

How's it looking on this, K? Have you had any media interest?

[katrina]

Going very well Linn thanks for asking and hopefully more from this list would love to take part.

Media interest not sorted that out yet but it will be fine - I leave the North Wales organiser :D to sort that out but I know we have some DJs from Liverpool who are also on the trek.

So if anyone fancy a little walk up the mountain with a few gigs on the way you are very welcome. Its a very friendly, inspiring, humbling experience to be honest - and the best part is its for a fantastic charity:D

Be lovely to see you all there

Love Kxxxx

Don't tell me Pete Price is one?!:D

I put a mention up on the North Wales forum about Snowdon Rocks last week, and it's mentioned in the general summer release that's out in various places with web address for LHS.

[katrina]

Thanks Linn any help and media interest is very much appreciated lolxxxx

Still sending out registration packs at this stage and organising an auction :)

[HarperPR]

Hope everyone who can is pitching in and spreading the word, even if they are unable to participate in the event itself.

Have been emailing Ian but he never replies unless you can get into his MySpace perhaps? Got his mobile phone number if that helps as a PM.
Know he's just moved house and was waiting for a BT conection...

Last call for snowdon rockers - please email me at katrinac@kcopping.fsnet.co.uk by the end of the day if you want to take part.

[scotpaulabear]

Hope all you valiant climbers have a fantastic day tomorrow - you're great for going the extra mile (upwards!) for such a worthwhile cause. Looking forward to seeing pics, and video if you have it!

I'll be thinking of you while I'm at the dentist... :bored:

[HarperPR]

Hope you hiked well, Kat. Was going to send you a text saying 'break a leg!', but somehow didn't seem appropriate for a mountain.:biggrin:

[katrina]

Thanks very much and the walk went very well - although slightly damp. A huge thank you to Nick for performing and supporting the charity as always.

I would just like to say a huge thank you and well done to everyone who took part in the Snowdon Rocks walk and gig. I'll write a longer piece about the event this week, but just a quick thank you to everyone who supported the charity.
It rained a little bit for the walk but hey its only water.

Here are some photos more to follow:
At the half way cafe for the gig..... A case of how many people can you get into a cafe at one time. I think we might have broken the record....

Glad it was a successful event. And well done to all you intrepid climbers.

Absolutely fantastic event...........

[just jane]

[scotpaulabear]

WOW a little water, Katrina you are the mistress of understatement! http://www.trackdayriders.co.uk/tdr/forum/smileys/rain.gif

I bet no spliffs were rolled for Captain Kirk in that weather!
At least the police helicopter couldn't see you in the mist all surrounding!

[scotpaulabear]

Did you go, Andi? I thought you were!!

[aspwatterson]

Did you go, Andi? I thought you were!!
My foot problem which had been bad for six months has now been solved after a three month wait for Podiatry [couldn't afford Chiropody]!

Instead I asked Katrina to put my sponsor money on Nick.

Still not sure if the solicitors can sort out late mum's affairs in time for Machu Pitchu but there's always next year. Inshalla.

Did you see the three cellists on the TV new this morning doing a charity sponsored climb with concert at top of four peaks now including Snowdon?

"We are stardust and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden"

Cheers for now
Andi :23::eek:

[scotpaulabear]

Good to hear your foot's better, Andi, and next year eh?

Katrina does that mean I have to send my promised Andi fiver to Nick now? :D

[katrina]

lol could do - or sponsor me again :D

Also more photos of the day are now up with a little review

www.lovehopestrength.co.uk (http://www.lovehopestrength.co.uk)

I'm taking names for snowdon rocks 3? If anyone is interested???? :party::party:

[critch]

Surely next year it must be sunny!

I need to do this at some point but i'll have to be organised and get my sponsor monies together - which is basically what stopped me this year.

[katrina]

The first year was lovely :D as I say it was only a bit of water and made people even more keen to get to the top.....

Yep, my partner and I would definetly be up for Snowdon Rocks3. We were at the first one, but prior commitments this meant we were elsewhere for the second one.

[aspwatterson]

I'm taking names for snowdon rocks 3? If anyone is interested????

Yes please put my name down for next year [and Ian Cropton's presumably?]. Might be best to start a new thread concerning this to separate it from previous?

chrs
andi :m20:

[katrina]

I'm just taking names at the moment - as we will not confirm anything until at least january. But will put you on a waiting list and let you know nearer the time.

Hope that is okay - paula do you want to come too.

Now you're asking ;) well please put me on the waiting list and I will start my training regime... :biggrin:

Names on the provisional list paulaxxx

[critch]

I suppose you can add me too. I need to do one at some point, and third time lucky eh?

[scotpaulabear]

We can dare each other to do it :wink:

Thanks for adding me Katrina, I'll try to get my act in gear for '09! I will be a responsible 40-year-old by then. Allegedly.

[critch]

We can dare each other to do it :wink:



why not eh? Dare ya! Lol.

Now kat, i think we should go for a 3 peaks job next year. Snowdon, scafell and ben nevis. Mountain each day and a coach to take those that pay through the nose to each. Gig on each mountain and then off to the next. I'm sure lots of other details could be included. I'm told you can even sail it from each close port which'd be fun!
