Oh, and 2 things
1 - Have you stopped hashtagging your tweets?
2 - Could you both release your start & finish points?
1. No, the hastags are appearing either at the beginning or end of the tweet! #sam for my tweets and #matt for Matthews tweets!
2. Chesham to Heathrow

I only ask because I am currently going through the "Your Challenge Attempts" thread and moving anything which doesn't contain a write-up of a full network challenge. If you'd said no, I would have moved this as it would have all been before the actual attempt.

Here's hoping that they're still on target. Though judging from the chaos of this morning they may already be in the pub!

Matt hasn't aborted, I don't think. I think he said how many stations he's done.

I was trying to send that as well as work out routing options, log and take photos...!
I've aborted. 162 stations in just over 9 hours.
Seriously considering retirement now. Will do a full report asap
