h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

When i did my hill walking/climbing I did so in winter and summer so weather wasn't an issue, just a challenge.

but when you get back to the tent and you are soaked you have nowhere to dry anything and it does get to you after a week of it.You cant sit outside of an evening with a glass and just relax watching the world go buy

Hmmm, must confess I did upgrade to a caravan towards the end of my annual excursions but still used a tent on overnite treks.The caravan allowed a bit more comfort have to say.

cant get your boots dry in a tent

True but if you're on a decent site they usually have drying rooms. If you're out in the wilds then yes, gets difficult.


Well I'm off to do some reading so I'll catch you later,
Take care.

Bye darling

good afternoon

Afternoon, wet and soggy here.

here too
where are you then

Midlands. We have several rivers converging in nearby town where I used to live. Just heard from friends, they've been evacuated along with 25 other families in the village. Also an old folks home is at risk. Bit grim all round really.

yes its awful just seen that two people have died

Yes, seems they used a generator without adequate ventilation.Condolences all round me thinks.

very much so
what are you up to to day then

Not a lot now. Done what needed doing, picked bit shopping up on way home so it's feet up time now.

at work again
hoping to go walking this weekend though

Well be safe with the walking as the forecast isn't good especially for sunday.

only going low level somewhere in the peak district

Nice area, have done quite a bit of walking there myself in the past.

its the nearest place to me very flat round here

I'm only 90 minutes from North Wales, 30 minutes to Derby Dales so had plenty of choice.
Used to spend 6 weeks at a time in Scotland for my more serious stuff when I was working and fit so to speak.
