Virtual Friends

In the days BC (before Cumbria), we came to know a few people who have websites detailing walks they have done in The Lakes. Today we met up with two of them for a walk.
Andrew Leaney (Website here) and David Hall (website here!)
Andrew's was the first site we found - a good few years ago and we have followed him and David around the county ever since. It was good to finally meet up instead of just exchanging emails.



We had chosen a really wet and miserable morning, but undeterred, we head of into the clouds on Carrock Fell. Having got thoroughly wet on Carrock, we continue to High Pike, stopping to admire a brief break in the clouds. From left to right...
David Hall, John Paterson (who we have known for quite a while), Jeff, Andrew Leaney, and Ken Leaney, Andrew's dad.
Perhaps we should have started out later, the forecast was for a fine afternoon. But then, when did the forecast matter? A good afternoon to sit eating cake and chatting.

It's good to know we still have a hosepipe ban!
