Well that was fun. Great to meet you Stolly, Tahr, Nigel, Kev and Pat and catch up again Roy. Certainly a memorable day, very lucky with the weather too!

A fantastic day out despite the massive casualty list. I hope Pat's ankle and Roy's hamstring are okay and that Spot the staffie didn't get lost.... again. And I especially hope everyone really enjoyed the ice wall climbing up Bowfell ;)

Great day out, it was nice to meet all you guys and girls. I hope Pat and Roy are on the mend soon. I knew I should have packed the ice axe,:o using rocks to cut foot holes is hard work. Does anybody know if you can get Katholos for dogs???? Harry and Igg would have liked a pair yesterday.;)
Thanks for the day Stolly I am looking forward to the next one. Any more photos mate?
