Karl & myself took ourselves hiking to the Lake District in September this year for a long weekend. It was the first time for both of us - being in the Lakes that is, which seems to come as a surprise to most people. Anyway, the weather wasn't looking too great en route with torrential rain for most of the drive there so we were expecting the worst. However it actually only rained once when we were at the top of Red Pike and that was very brief.

The scenery lived up to our expectations though even if Karl's new boots did not, managing to peal most of the skin from his heals. Poor Mr.K ! ! !
