Our Drivers

Our awesome drivers Bryan and Jason:



What can we say about our drivers? They were superb! We couldn't have done it without them. They made good time without excessively speeding gaining us crucial minutes in our challenge. They were a great laugh boosting our morale when we were down and so supportive when we needed it most! Cheers guys! You're the best and we all mean that!


Here are their thoughts on the weekend:


Hi Everybody.
I hope you are all feeling fit and well and ready for a short wall next Saturday "The Yorkshire 3 Peaks"
and on the way back we can climb Snowdon to be different any takers??

Just a quick e-mail to say I have had the most boring weekend possible, driving around the country a bunch of very serious but happy go lucky walkers to start with, which soon disappeared to a bunch of quiet and slightly worried not so happy walkers, after the short climb of Ben Nevis.

On a serious note I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate all of you on your great achievement not only as a group but individually, I had a great time you are all amazing. Sorry for making a few of you feel travel sick as I drove steadily like Postman Pat to and from Wasdale.

What's the next challenge??

Cheers
Bryan


Last but not least, me. I can tell whose actually been working today.

What can I say?????? Here goes, a thank you to:

Lucy for giving everybody the enthusiasm, drive and organisation needed.
Steve for his Strength showing how to battle through after Ben Nevis and Scafell when he decided to try and break-dance on the mountain resulting in a dislocated his finger.
Craig for his knowledge, leadership and snoring which kept me awake while at the wheel (which was lucky for us in the Picasso).
Stevie for his compassion, his I will do this attitude and for reminding us all some legs should never see the light of day, I've eaten chicken drum sticks with more meat on.
Dawn for making us all laugh, being able to fart better than any bloke I know and for giving me nightmares hoping never to see pants that big again.
Leigh for as usual keeping us all entertained and helping moral with a drive to complete the challenge with hardly any training.
Mick for the steely determination shown after Ben Nevis, giving support to all and confirming you are made of granite.
Ann for showing us all what a great achievement this really is, I will bow to this lady forever she's got the biggest bollocks I know and for her never ending smile.

Special thanks below for 2 guys not at Dicom who have given up their time to be with a bunch of nutters.

Dean for his endless energy, that guy has got to be on something! His conversation which kept me baffled finally coming to the conclusion he's from the Birmingham area, As a guide absolutely bloody useless took Lucy down the wrong track but I think that was well planned, can't believe you fell for that old chestnut Luce, I must remember that the next time I go out down Mansfield.

Bryan, Bryan, Bryan. My co driver, Dawns bitch, U get the biggest praise of all, How the hell do you live with Dawn and you've not got one grey hair? U were a tower of strength, fed me (hence the best praise) and it was a pleasure to spend my time with you, we'll definitely get together and have a proper drink. If I weren't an Adonis and attracted to luvly girls (as all the cars piping when I was stark bollock naked washing my weapon confirmed) I would have you as my bitch anytime, I'd never move of the settee.

As you all can see with the time of this e-mail I'm totally knackered, it's taken me longer to type this shocker than it did to drive you fanbloodytastic set of people from Scafell to Snowdon. As I said at the beginning WHAT CAN I SAY?????????????????????????

Best regards,


Jason Greatorex
