Best Made Plans

The forecast last night was for cloudy, rainy and generally mucky weather. A perfect day to make curtains and watch the opening match of the RBS Six Nations. When we woke to a frost and clear blue skies, we did exactly what we moved here to do. We decided to change our plans and have a walk, so long as we were back in time for kick off!
Carrock Fell has long been one of our favourite weekend fells, because it is in one of the relatively undiscovered corners of the lakes. It is now one of our closest fells, just a few minutes drive and we are there, unless of course it's rush hour, Cumbrian style .............
The views of the fells open up as you reach higher ground

All that and we're not even on holiday;-)
