Sorry folks sold out but there is a waiting list :-

Not for me (Despite a good line up) I won`t be attending any super spreader events for a while on or off the fells.
Good luck all

I would guess that if you head for any of the uk tourist honeypots this summer you will find scenes reminiscent of the picture of Kendal calling festival.
I won`t be venturing out during the day but will be going out onto the fells overnight unless too many people have the same idea

I find April/May are wonderful months, providing the ideal window for heading out for a night's wild bivvy. The days are longer, the weather is usually less relentlessly wet, and best of all the midges and ticks aren't out and about, or if they are, they lack their summertime vigour and enthusiasm.

Spot on you can`t beat watching the sun go down as you brew up and get your Bivvy sorted in a nice remote spot far from the madding crowd and then brewing up again as the sunrises again a few hours later, most of my fondest memories are of overnighting on the hills of England, Scotland Wales and yes April and May ( i have to say though I have picked up many Ticks on the Scottish hills in May) can be a little more predictable but I also enjoy the challenge of so called adversity, because that is where hillcraft is learned and practiced.

We're heading across to South Cumbria in the next few months.
Jobs secured (remote for me with one 2-day trip to site a week; Lancaster for wife).
Current house on the market at more than we expected and plenty of interest.
Renting first, so we can find the right place to buy. Ideally want to end up outside of Kendal.
All very exciting but lots of balls to be juggled. Hoping to get round some rental properties in a few weeks. Buying will be quite vicious when we get there I think.
