Padlocks can help.

Tuesday of this week I went out to the Nature Park people and left a map of the Vets Handicap course and a request for a key to the first gate.
I got the key alright, and left a map and description of the course, and indicated the location of the gate we required to open for the event.
On Saturday when checking out the padlock, found (by luck) it had been put on the wrong gate.
So the ranger was rung on the mobile and a description of the problem and the solution was given and discussed over the phone.
Sunday morning arrived at the location, and walked down to the first gate, together with Audrey, who was the marshall at that location, and found that the padlock had been put on the first gate.

Made a big difference on the day to have that gate open, while we were running.
Phew!!

Until Next Time.
