In the spirit of the original posts - that's a pretty poor TR, wish I hadn't bothered reading just as I'm delighted to have been able to join you
Cheers Jac, it was a pleasure not to meet you!
Glad that you had such a miserable time, Mel
Seriously - sorry that I couldn't come.
No worries Richard, cheers
Cracking write up in the spirit of the day, Mel. Love the weather map! Gloves are finally dry this morning. Hope you got some time out yesterday as well as shopping.
I like to think Karl, Colin and I looked like the Walking Forum MRT rather then three postmen!
Edited just to say - I won't be adding any photos. Far too incriminating/didn't take any.
Thanks Paul. I managed to wring out my gloves and get an eggcup full of water from them
the Walking Forum MRT... now there's an idea....
Enjoyed the tale of your misadventures Mel
Cheers Dovegirl
A most entertaining report and an excellent weather pic
Thanks VGH. Unfortunately that weather pic is the most accurate weather forecast I've ever found
Excellent Tr Mel
Sensible bit of hillcraft. Wouldn't have wanted to call out the MR for a bad case of frothy crotch And unless we have a freak tectonic event Red Screes will still be there in the spring.
Cheers Karl.
frothy crotch! Forgot about that. No wonder you slid so far with all that soap...
Great report Mel.
Glad you didn't post your pics of the boys in their matching speedos by the tarn.
Thanks Mark. Who said anything about anyone wearing speedos..
Snow is there to be ENJOYED, Mel, not avoided
And in weather conditions like that, it would have been enjoyed
Mel. Found the TR we were discussing - http://www.walkingforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=29186.msg425124#msg425124 much preferred our day though with that lovely grey cloud and none of that pesky bright sunshine spoiling the pics
That's the one! Can't believe it was 5 years ago
Great write up Mel
Shame the weather was a bit rubbish for you, you deserve a good'n next visit
Cheers April
though "the weather was a bit rubbish" is being nominated for the "Understatement Of The Year" Awards
Great trip report mel
Shame about the weather dont you know karl is a bad weather magnet
You should have come to wooler
Haha, seeing as you only booked Wooler to avoid my meet....
I won't be employing KWPS (Karl's Weather Provision Service) again
