And we're down

Scafell was a little more tricksy than expected, (including an off-track detour) but we're down. The frontrunners in 4 hours, the rear ten minutes later. We're a little more tired, and slightly pushed for time. Although apparently as long as your combined walking time is under 14 hrs, our guide tells us you've still officially 'done it'.
We've also had our first rain, and rather a lot of mud. Jack is re-blister plastering his feet, our knees are a little wrecked, and my elbow's feeling the strain (that one certainly wasn't expected).
We're going to try and sleep now. Jason's promised us all burgers at the next stop-off. Win.
NB. We've also decreed that trundle wheels are uncool. Beware.
