Weasel running across Manchester Road just outside Buxton last night. It was holding its head quite high, so it might have been carrying a small mouse or something - we weren't close enough to see.

Oh yeah, I've just remembered. And a red deer near Flash Bottom.
Flash Wincle. Noel, you've just inadvertently provided the name of the lead character in the book I must now write... ' The Adventures of Flash Wincle '.
Village near Hathersage called 'Shatton' which I always have a good giggle about.
Anyway, saw a very large and very injured Hare last night on a trog. Looked like it had been attacked by a dog or fox and escaped. That's the second one in about six weeks. Went back with a box with the intention of taking it to the wild animal rescue place but it had beggared off by then...
Hee hee! Shatton!
Running today above Merens la Vals and we stumbled across a couple of naked people lounging in a natural sulphur pool next to the GR10 path.

We asked but they declined!
Our run over the fells around the head of Mardale last night was enriched by spotting a fox between Wet Sleddale and Haweswater on the journey there and a gorgeous red deer hind by the roadside near the dam. It remained quite unconcerned by our presence and continued grazing just 5 or 6 metres away. Splendid sight.
