A proper epic that day, but remember piling down jackets on her when we got back into the landy.Originally Posted by Fellbeast
So long Em, as a follower on Instagram and friend on fb I saw your fearless battle first hand and, when you dropped off the radar, I sort of assumed the worst
I still remember our epic HPM recce in thigh deep blizzard conditions, with IanDarkPeak too and others, along with your rufty tufty dog Dave, with his little cow bell
My other fond memory of Emmy that always makes me smile, I led a reccie of the Edale Skyline, The dogs bell was driving me nuts fortunately the the clapper fell out half way round, She got abit annoyed about it as she'd have to buy another, It wasn't until we returned to the car 3 hours later that I mentioned I'd filled the bell with sheep droppings..She gave me a roasting but did see the funny side...
I also remember her determination on the BG, They'd gone astray on leg two and Daz and I pushed her to the limit on leg 3 to recover the time. we pulled back an hour I think. She was it tears and broken at Wasdale and I thought she was done, No chance now ....But that determination and fight saw her to the finish..tough girl I've never underestimated any body again
