Will be at least 5 or 6 teams enough to be competitive, anything other than last will be a result for me as I will be taking it rather "gingerly"

Re: Random 15 2011 - 2012 - Round Four - 18 February 2012
OK just a rule clarification so we are crystal clear...........
5 hours is the total time allowed (may or may not be enough
)for both sets of stations in the envelopes and not 2 1/2 hours for each set.....
You must complete all of the stations in envelope 1 before opening envelope 2.... They may be a tough set of stations and with time ticking away it may be tempting to leave a couple of stations out, open the second set and complete 13 out of 15 in the alloted time. Of course envelope 2 could be even worse
When giving times to the sub BERC you will need to advise both of your final stations visited in the relevant envelopes, or your total stations visited in 5 hours........ An interim time for the first 8 stations would be nice but not essential...
Good luck and see you all the home of cricket on Saturday

Did a couple of test sets of stations last night. My completion times seem to vary greatly from about 2 hours to 4.5 hours.

Fact of the day - there is a 40% chance that at least one station will be in both envelopes.
