What a fantastic day. I set off up to Taddington and then straight down into Millers Dale and then Tideswell. Left at the Anchor and then the back...

The sky may not have been celeste but it was certainly blue enough for me to treat my taut and tuned post-service best bike to a 40 mile 3500 feet...

And if you get bored with all of that then the seldom visited, much overlooked and underrated, Moffat Hills are only about an hour away!

Lemmy, I don't think you'd go wrong with either Kendal or Penrith to be honest. For me, Penrith being in the wonderful Eden valley, is a great...

Yes, England are the new France! Dangerous with the ball but ill-disciplined. Whatever happened to the tried-and-tested boring but effective?

England looked so dangerous when they had the attacking ball at the Wales end I felt they would run away with the game. But then they go to sleep or...

Tirril... I won't go into too much detail, but I was rather fortunate to hear about a place there "on the grapevine" that wasn't on the market. To...

Stroppy, error prone England it seems. But full credit to Wales they took their chances well.

Travs, thanks for the reply. Sounds like a brave decision with a similar goal to ourselves of moving to new hills to explore. Good luck with the new...

I've seen this, but surely its provisional on cases continuing to fall - as is the whole of the roadmap to get us out of lockdown. We need people to...

Not a chance its falling apart already:rolleyes:

Newts appearing in the local pond. They are small and I assume smooth. Need to be careful as last year the local Kingfisher was gobbling them down....

If you're looking for a town, Penrith, or there abouts - has it all, except the hordes of tourists that you have to cope with in the Lakes.

Congrats to Wales - in the end they deserved to win and looked very composed. I thought England would steal it when they drew 24-24, but then...

Lemmy that is rather interesting, as i've been in a very similar position to you in the past few months. I've been considering a move to the Lakes...

I had a new boiler installed a couple of years ago and I have a 12year parts and labour warranty on it, provided it get`s an annual service which...

Wales good for every win I reckon. Bit of luck here and there but defense is solid. Sheedy n Zammit, Faletau, Jones and biggar good as ever. Shame...

10 degrees with a very slight Northerly wind. Full sun, with hardly a cloud all the time I was out. Started off with shorts and short-sleeve top with...

Result 👍.

Hare running across a field; but it was being quite sensible, because it is not March yet.

Agreed - but do make sure you have the contact details of a local reliable central heating/boiler person for when it does let you down.

I've been reliably informed that Parkruns are returning from 5th June...

He also had a guest spot this week on that rather annoying 'farming' program from somewhere over Barnsley way.

Thanks

I wouldn't. A service would probably cost that much. But if it's a new house then you'll probably be ok without one for a few years. I would...

12.51 miles, 3,329 feet, 3 hours 38 minutes: Fairfield c/w. In cloud from 600 ft on the way up until 1,500 ft on the way down. It was obviously an...

I'll go with that 👍.
