  1. I’ll give it a go. Bull not been in Johnson’s field for a few years. Still Dreich here on the Fylde. Ready for change. Hope everyone good.
  2. Scuba steve Bittersweet with this one. Good for more “tourism” in a now very overcrowded village but the whole saga got a bit messy. Looking back Bluebird should’ve been left at the bottom of the lake. Odd how we were drawn to Coniston yesterday a place visited so many a happy time with my parents in the 70’s the first real Lakeland holidays igniting the passion. And then on to the adolescence misdemeanours of the Crown Inn. Enough said…..
  3. Scuba steve soon got to the Bardsea coast road. No roadworks in town for a change. Carried on up to Coniston - the climbing playground of Dow Crag and the Old Man looking fabulous when the Sun came out a brew in the Herdwick café, really quiet, everyone waiting for the big day of Campbell’s Bluebird K7 return tomorrow maybe. Memories of camping down Bowmanstead many time in the 70s and 80s looking out across the lake at night thinking where he could be. Mixed thoughts of all the wrangling and fighting that’s gone over the years between Bill Smith and the Ruskin Museum then again, maybe the skipper should’ve stayed with the boat All down to this which inspired Bill, a fabulous piece of music from a fabulous band. Had Worse Tell me about it!
  4. WillinGlossop Change from Cumbria Will. Try Alnwick or Bamburgh Boat to Lindisfarne is good We like Whitby for all things Gothicness Scuba steve Baltic Easterly when the Sun drops.
  5. Had Worse Thanks for your concern lol Still out in it but dragged along by Terriers! "I'm not dead yet" but the big ones in Alpine conditions like that are well behind. Head says Yes - Legs definately say No The recovery times getting longer. Still got tons of memories (and scars) when the Lake District was quiet we could even get a parking space in the ODG - could write a book albeit not a hardback lol @Rush2019 might know a song called "Losing It" Some of yesterdays images coming through were stunning - the Hills will always be perpetual AW said - life really is brief.
  6. Some fantastic quality conditions out there for the able bodied. Sadly my days are now past.
  7. Up Cumbria a few times next week. Staying local. Next village walk. Derelict Poultry Farm Mudfest Locals. Looks like the Village budget has been spent.
