Pictures sorted now lol
It was a toss up between Coniston and Derwent Water. Coniston won because I knew exactly where to put in and no precious time would be wasted scouring Derwent's shores.
We took enough gear to keep us comfortable for a week even though it was to be only an overnight stay. I'm used to wild camping with everything carried on my back so we indulged ourselves Telling myself that this was a dress rehearsal for a Scotland trip eased my conscience We put in at Rigg Wood.
Tying, clipping, strapping and blutacking everything in the noo.
We made for Peel Island for a spot of lunch and landed at the secret harbour.
Ian in his new Scoutmaster hat.
The first of many pictures of me stuffing my face.
After we'd recharged our bellies we headed down the Crake river. Very peaceful down here.We hadn't touched the beer by this time and yet Ian still manages to look drunk. At least he's a happy drunk.
After not getting a sniff of a bite we headed north up the western shore and had a stretch of our legs. Now the beer was broken out of the packs.
That's half of 'em, let me see if I can get the other half on another post. BCUK is acting very weird.
