Richard and I enjoyed a long weekend in Stockholm, which was scheduled to coincide with a meeting that he is attending...
Laetitia had invited Tut Braithwaite to speak at the Climbers' Club Welsh guidebook centenary celebration earlier this year ... as a thank-you for his part in that great weekend's celebrations he invited Laetitia as the CC guest at the Alpine Club's AGM and annual dinner...
My friend Dave came to visit this weekend, and after an aborted walk on the Friday (I got a call to assist Keswick MRT with a fallen walker on Sharp Edge), we headed to Haweswater yesterday.
Despite the amazingly bad weather the Kendal Mountain Festival went ahead and was as massive, amazing and entertaining as usual...
So, after I'm not quite sure how long, the infamous 'Rubble Room' is no more. Penrith's premier bouldering venue is complete!
The Wrekin is a 298 m high hill (407 m OD) near Telford in Shropshire. Richard tells me that it is the steepest hill in Britain..
As it's still raining in Cumbria, I decided the only way to get some practice for the winter was to set myself a day tour.......................
Rain and more rain in Cumbria!
There's been too few cakes for my liking....................
