Having fun with old newspapers, plastic and now my summer tomatoes...

Any ideas what this is?

I found this bird sitting on my kitchen extractor fan. Amazing.

Still having adventures

Life does get in the way, doesn't it. Had fun around Alston recently. Must get over to the Lakes...

I am back in Toon

I seem to have been away on adventures most of this year.

Lakes, Lakes, Lakes, and reading and knitting.

So what is in store ? Well, the late 18th century seems to be calling me. Rowing on Grasmere Lake courtesy of William Gell.

I explored a bit of Thirlmere last month which was great fun, much more interesting than I expected.

I've been over to the Lakes again - had a trip from Ullswater to Borrowdale. Here is a beautiful evening on Fairfield.

Gone to the Lakes....

... will be back shortly!

What have I been up to?

Well, I've been over to the Lakes quite a lot to get some sanity from this mad world, sleeping out on the fells and doing some running with some great people. Did the Patterdale Boundary the other week which was great - Glencoyne, Stybarrow Dodd, Raise, Helvellyn, Seat Sandal, Fairfield, Dove Crag, Scandale Pass, Red Screes, Kirkstone, High Street, Angle Tarn, Place Fell and back to Patterdale. 8hrs 8mins.
