“Let’s try somewhere different from the Roaches”, said Terry to Bernie this morning. “Let’s try Castle Naze”. So we did and the weather was exceptional. Still March yet the temperature in the sun hit 28C! Which explains the topless climbing photo attached.

Anna, Ian, Andy and Sabiene spent Sunday on Blencathra, and a trip up Hall's Fell Ridge.
