| Shweet sweet day out in the Lakes. Tagging control sites for the Dark and White mountain marathon at the end of September. Got stuck in some bracken a few times, but generally hot, sunny, steep, good views etc. Getting quite thirsty by the end, but was trying not to drink out of any streams, because I was near Angle Tarn and its tributaries which I believe are infested with some nasty stuff.
Dinner in Stickle Barn followed by beers and entertainment from a one man band. Good night. |

No that was just to keep mr middleditch happy as he hates all the 'bumming' of each other that goes on here. So here I go 'bumming' Oli -It was ace mate -cheers alot. |

| Hathersage gala fell race. Really nice evening for a change. Felt pretty dodgy but ran ok. I got reet pissed off with that stuart bond nobber as he cut lots of corners, at the top I was right behind him, but then he cut another corner and got 20m on me. That was enough for me not to keep with him. Then I was a cock at the finish and didn't shake his hand -much to the amusement of craney. Went for an eye-of-the-needle poo afterwards. |

I felt rubbish for the first half but then the sun came out for the first time in about three weeks so it was all good. First run with Craney since he came back.
Just to top it off we went to LJ's for a slap up lunch. I had sweet and sour chicken on a bed of rice served with chips and salad...mmm.
