well jack
while we are looking forward to the dropping of your other shoes
it looks like your worlds record tripointing party of 25 people may
have been exceeded by the party of 46 or more who thoroughly &
indeed religiously perambulated the english village of christleton
a couple of years ago
presumably including several tripoints with neighboring villages

certainly this is on a much lower level than your own tripoint visits
so it may deserve just a footnote in the record book
in smaller print beneath yours

in any case these folks do appear to have the record for largest
known perambulation party too
complete with bouncing one another off the rocks in the
traditional way

so intent were they on not missing a single inch of the line
that one man even swam the boundary across a canal

for particulars
including pix of a few rocks
