I second that! Wow, I am jealous. The last time I payed a visit was for an orienteering activity during sixth form, which was quite some time ago now...

That was brave of the teaching staff; allowing a load of sixth formers out near the locks! I bet it wouldn't be allowed these days Health and Safety would blow a fuse!! I and another student managed to get totally lost on an orienteering exercise in the Derbyshire Dales (also quite some time ago). The tutor was about to send out a search party when we appeared over the horizon, a mere 2 hours later than expected!
