Patterdale walking trip

I shared a special 28 hours away walking with my brother Dave and cousin Adrian staying at Patterdale Hall with 8 other good friends as part of a long standing annual tradition.

Terrific times. The full set of pictures can be seen here

The route on Day 1 was:

Gran and her two Grand-daughters

Happy and positive times this weekend - a brief trip to Glasgow to stay the night with Gran and also to see Uncle Campbell and cousins Greig and Laura. Highlights included a trip to the Art Museum (all impressed) plus some shopping in the big city. Quit impressive for us country folk!

A rare moment of time out for Anne and I - a brief but enjoyable circuit of Elterwater and Chapel Style. Lovely.

Lady of the Manor Cyclo Cross

Angus and I both had some muddy cyclo-cross fun yesterday, brightening up a murky winter say at St Helens, supported by Helen, Matt and Anne. Ann's faithful support was rewarded by a trip to DFS in Warington after. A good day. Some pictures here and my race stats from my Garmin here.
