I've become much more weather aware now I'm a gentleman of leisure but I'm still expert in wasting nice weather. Every year I get away camping around this time, promising myself it'll be the first of many trips but then something interupts. Last year it was shuffling the interior of my new boat and sprucing up the old one to sell. This year it's looking like I'll be painting the new boat roof and sides, there's about 70-80 sq m of it, like hand painting 10 campers. Windows out, fittings removed and it's all in the prep as they say. Anyhow, the forecast is great this week so I'm off to my favourite site in Hayfield to drag myself up and down Kinder scout a couple of times. Should be interesting after a hard winter lying in front of the stove smoking ciggies. ๐

What's this eck business?
You're not a Northerner.
You'll be eating pies next (Blackburn Market has a fantastic pie stall, or at least it did last time we were there a few years ago).

Love this camp site, they've lent me a hook up cable and a convector heater! I've peaked early, the weather is a bit poo today but the forecast for the rest of the week is great so I've booked another night. When it's cool and breezy down on the site it's cold blowing a gale oop on t' hills lad, but I won't be going up there to check.

Yes, I could do with that or just a bit less wind really. I'd settle for either. I know I'm supremely unfit so I don't fancy cold, wind and 12 miles of clambering about on my first walk for a year. I'm not as young as I was when I was younger.

No passport and it seems to be either snowing or blazing hot there neither of which I like.
I do like the uk climate really I'm being a wimp!
