Alex has just about stuffed the last pack of biscuits and box of matches into the bags and barrels. 03:10 ish is not bad going for him actually. Packing for trips like this has before been known to last until daylight at Castle Purser.
Everything fits and will stay dry and Alex can hopefully remember which barrel he put the car keys in the bottom of. Julie's cake is large and dense enough to have its own gravitational field and had to be packed at the geometric centre of everything else to avoid imbalance.
The overall weight of equipment, food and clothes is, technically speaking, lots. Before adding Oli's rucksack (more than likely light as a feather) Alex's bathroom scales estimate something in the region of 164lbs of stuff (before a few loose bits and pieces) coming along for the ride.
Less than five hours until kick off.

Two friends from Suffolk climb Scotland's two highest mountains and canoe between them. In doing so, they raise money for the RNLI.
