Has there been a SAT performed in the Cheviots

Post by colin keightley »

Each year I like to set myself goals, last year it was to raise some money for charity and learn to snowboard, check and check. This year I want to do a first, so wondered if anyone has done a SAT in the Cheviots.

I'll be doing a site assessment anyhow Ron, I ain't going to put any of our sites at risk. I won't even chance doing it unless I know I have chance to recover from any mistakes.
