I was meant to be camping out with Peterleepaddler(tony) last night and today but we cancelled due to the predicted bad weather,
this is where we were meant to camp, at the back of the cave you can see in the pic.
Rather than wast a Saturday i decided to go for a walk along the cliffs to check out some seals on a beach about 3 miles north of above pic.
The weather was cold and clear good job as there's lots of drops like this to avoid.
After about a hour's walk it started to spit icy rain, id just crossed a farm gate on a fence to stop the sheep going over the edge,when i slipped, the ground was grassy but slick mud underneath and my right leg shot out infront of me and to say the pain in my knee was intense was a understatement i screemed like a child and now cant put any weight on my right leg if its bent, but its okay if straight, this is where i slipped.
Just then i was hit by a blizzard out of know where, i was just in the process of strapping up my knee as best i could with a shemagh,and my belt.
when the weather went from above pics to this,,
what took me just over a hour to get to took me two and a half to get back home,
this is me on way back,
and this is looking at where we would have been camping on the way back,
It was actualy fun to be tested like this in a way i just hope i havent done any serious damage to my knee, as at the minute after a warm bath its still painfull and i cant bend the damn thing without alot of pain.
