It was hot and sunny on a Bank Holiday..... it was never like this under Gordon Brown!!!!
We went to Foredale Quarry near Settle on Sunday to get away form the crowds in the Lake District over the bank holiday weekend. As we arrived we were greeted with the wonderful sight of a steam train charging north from Settle...
We got up at a reasonable time on Saturday morning and decided to make our way up to the Envers des Aguilles....
After much guidebook scanning the short approach walk of Yorkshire Limestone was selected...
After Switzerland we headed to the Dolomites for two weeks...
I was lucky enough to have three weeks holiday this year so we headed off to Switzerland for the first five days.
On Monday we headed out to Gogarth to take advantage of the fine weather...
Despite six months of notice and lots of positive votes for all sorts of activities support for this year's rendezvous dropped off severely...
...even though Richard and Helen decided to go to Shinning Clough we stayed low and sheltered with a visit to Staden Quarry near Buxton...
