The night's go fast on the Pennine Way. Partly because all you really want to do is rest a few hours more, but also there is so much to do - unpacking, bathing, tending feet, eating and having a few pints, and then an early night. Other routines I have are posting to this blog and the reading the next chapters of my Wainwright guide and Armitage's book, both read back to front.
Last night I was reading Armitage saying that "Cross Fell is a truly terrible place." Well today it was a pussy cat, sunny warm and not a chance of losing the path. I think I had much more luck than poor old Simon.
Looking back
So happy to hear about your food rob 😉 sounds delicious. And your evening chores and early night are just up my street! 183 miles!!! I am so very impressed. And left wondering what mind of amusement there was to have in gregs hut with all that bunting. Hope you are sleeping well right now and look forward to tomorrow's installment xx
ReplyDeleteThink it must have been a bit of a party. Probably with lots of Bailey's on offer. Sleeping better than I would in Greg's hut, would be greatful of a night there if stranded out on the fell.
DeleteJust wanted to wish you luck for the rest of the walk - I head to Iceland tomorrow morning so not sure how often I will be logging in to check on your progress !
ReplyDeleteThanks Graham, hope it's a great holiday fully of adventure for you and Pete. Xx
