Now I have lots of jars of redcurrant jelly to get through....
We heard the Downes hut was in need of a little attention, so I gathered some troops for a weekend of work...
We phoned the plumber this morning. I think French plumbers go to the same school as British plumbers. They could no longer come today, how about tomorrow?!?

We have a new guidebook - the new Michel Piola The Aiguilles Rouge (English version) - so we looked for something reasonably short for our first day in Chamonix...
It wasn't raining, but I was feeling cold and I didn't want to venture high. I wanted to avoid the potential crowds (!) on low-lying Lakeland rock and so I decided that we should head east to Yorkshire. I like the area near Austwick, so Pete picked a new venue for us - Pot Scar...
The weather didn't look so great on Sunday morning when we eventually got out of bed. The 'A' Team at Grange were off to Black Crag, but we thought the rain was imminent, so we chose a very unusual activity for us - a walk...
