Out & About

[Kepis]

Went out and about with Hugo again today, we didnt do much, as by the time we got to our current favoured spot, we were both knackered, the heat getting there was overpowering, few pics from the day

In the woods at last and some much needed shade

Brew up with the Crusader and MB Stove

Hugo levitating

Nice a shady & cool

This was far too comfortable today

Looking around the area

The site as we left it

Walking back past some gorgeous Common Spotted Orchids

and evidence of the display still to come

looking up slope

the weirdest find of the day, a Lambs Foot, must have been dropped by a Fox, Crow, Buzzard as the this was in the woods and a good half mile or so from the nearest field of Ewes and their lambs, it was very fresh as the exposed flesh was still pink

Further round and a lovely Dog Rose

then back up the small slope towards the cars, great day out with great company - roll on next week

Lovely mate - I adore where I am....but I miss the Downs

 

[Kepis]

Thanks mate, sure was lovely up there today.

 

[Hugo]

Thanks for the great company Kepis mate, twas a hot day to start with I must admit, plenty of puffing and panting on my part getting up the hill, plenty of tea and grub sorted that out.
Glad I had my levitation hammock low, as the fall from the badly tied knot (Twang it went) was not uncomfortable.

Great pictures and a real cheer me up as I look out at the rain from my office window

I was supposed to be cutting wood

But instead I am stripping and cleaning rotary rifle mags...if any job is fit to make you throw something - thats it!

That looks like a White Helleborine to me. Not a species I see over my way. Lovely looking plant.

You missed a good old bimble this week, not sure about the coming week as it's half term?, all depends on what the family have planned for me

 

[Rockmonkey]

Yep, Good time was had by all!
Lots of walking and mountains, And lots of coffee and cake!
Hottest day we had was 91 deg!!!, that was a day spent teaching the dog to swim in Derwent water!

Sounds sublime, will give you a shout re a bimble, looking at the long range forecast, might be Wednesday, about the only really dryish day of the week i think
