Just looked at Monday's weather. Rain God's are set to piss all over t'Pennines (and probably a fair chunk of t'Pennine too) all day long.
It's getting difficult to talk the family into this one and still stay in their good books.
:confused:

Walked the short route with my girlfriend.
It was really nice to have a sniff around an area we'd not been before.
The weather was rubbish for about an hour but we had full waterproofs and chocolate so was all OK.
Thanks to Jim and others for organising a nice afternoon out in the hills.
