    Longwell Green is just down the road from where I work.....however, I am near a massive sainsburies and a "new" housing estate - awful lot peroxide and 'tramp stamps' around here.......

    Is that not Emerson's Green? I remember when that was all fields...no, really. I used to cycle from Frampton Cotterell to Longwell Green very regularly when Mrs RJS and I first started going out. It sounds like the area has gone down hill a bit EDIT: dare I say it, gone a bit Yate?.

    Can you remember when Cribbs Causeway was just fields and the only place out there was Carrefour?
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    I'd forgotten about that, but yes, just about.

    I could have sworn I posted somewhere about the success of our LEJOG!?!?

    We raised £3,500 for a local hospice. The trip also proved that so long as you are reasonably fit then 100 miles a day for 10 days can be completed with no more than 500 miles of training! :)
    Still breathing.....

    A great achievement, but perhaps not the information leodis75 was seeking; akin to a review of the LotR films being "they left out Tom Bombadil". Still, happy Boxing Day/Stephen's Feast, omnes!
