Lake District - Fell Walking

I thought it was grime, "thus were there is muck there is money" To honest it hurts me to live here in London I hate it, Scotland, Lake District, Somerset, would be my choice at a drop of a feather. But I need to be close to the NHS traps for sick folk.

I miss this place, and the cold swim in the morning. And my friend Dr Kerr.

Don't worry Steve, the 'Numpties' are all in Pooley Bridge swishing around in their nice new Berghaus coats eating ice cream
It was ideal walking weather Tony, bit chilly on the tops but that's the way I like it as I don't like hiking in hot weather. I expect Keswick is pretty hammered at the moment? (hopefully they will all be able to get back to the Costas soon).

And they still drive like loons like they do here in London, in cars far to big and they can't find the indicators, or understand roads sign. One Way means one way, no turning left, or right means nothing here let alone Give Way signs, right Burks. And schools runs mean 100yrds is far to far for there spoilt brats to walk so bring the big German car and block the roads with mums without roads sense. I want to move help

I'm an early bird, out for my walk by 6.00, so I'm back & having breakfast by the time the hordes are out & about. Walked up Walla Crag the other morning & didn't see a soul.
Crikey I was on foot at 9.30am doing The Dodds a couple of weeks ago on a Saturday and I thought that was a sterling effort but 6:00am respect. I'm a night owl - I don't do mornings

Best time of the day! I spend lots of time up there, so I've got lots of photos, mostly taken in the early morning. It's getting light about 4.30 am there now, so I'll probably be heading out earlier. Here's a couple more...

Wonderful pics! Looking forward to getting back to Keswick and Derwentwater. Usually camp at the site next to Booths (very handy…). Trouble is, it’s generally full!

Aye, a very popular site! Often floods though.
Having to pay to park in the Booths car park when shopping there has nearly caught me out a few times!

...not if you go before 10.00am! And if you go later, you get your pound back in the store.
