Thankyou all for the show of support.
As regards Lottery funding etc. Yes we have already pursued this and they should double anything we can raise.
The biggest problem is that the local rumour mill is saying that a VERY wealthy local landowner wants the land for raising Grouse.
This particular landowner's ranger has already tried to stop us landing in front of the Cat n Fiddle Pub (first port of call if you lose that first thermal half way up!!), wouldn't mind so much except that he doesn't even own that bit of land anyway.
