Hi Ridge
I live in Durham which is a great place to live for walks, aren't most places though!
I know I'm not exactly on the doorstep of the Pennine Way but if I can help you out in anyway let me know.
Obviously the current restrictions aren't going to last forever.
What's your plan, at the moment? Everyone likes a good plan! Friends have planned a round the world car trip over two years, even been to night classes to learn Russian.... plans all dashed!
