Yeh I've seen that but I don't want to download a whole route for 1 activity! But is it good? Or does anyone want to make one for the Settle and Carlise?

That's an interesting line of thought. You can't be bothered to take the time to download a route yourself but you want someone else to take the time to create an activity for you
For your information the Thomas Activity took about a month to write and together with the services of two other members to test it. Is it any good ? Well that would be telling !!!

As David says, download either the route of create a new activity, but you can't get everyone else to run round after you when it can easily be done by yourself. An activity can be very easy to make, i done about 15 acts for the SVR route, it took me a month, and remember, i had to do loads of researcg on top of that to get it all done. And i was fairly new to creating acts at that stage, so it is very easy. So try making an act yourself

The Great Hat Chase is very good and is well worth a download of the excellent Thaxted branch.
There are also several other fine activities for Thaxted.
Give it a go - I am sure you will be happy.

Thanks

I totally agree with all of this, people asking others to do activities or similar things for them, its not just this post its all over the place.
I know it can be frustrating even doing an activty at times, but we all go throught it.
Oh by the way can someone build me a route from Newcastle to Carlisle.
