Even better, the Dales without Adrian fricking Edmondson!!!
Two grand runs Gromit. On Saturday from Kettlewell (in Upper Wharfedale) running a 16 mile loop over Great Whernside, Buckden Pike and Firth Fell with Hazzer and, on Sunday, a 11 mile there-and-backer up the Pennine Way out of Hawes (in Wendsleydale) to the top of Great Shunner Fell with Hezzer and Hazzer. A grand range of weather too - cold cold wind, hill fog, driving rain, sunshine and, best of all, plenty of mud and and sloshy water to slog through.

| Buckden Pike and its absolutely hammering down |
 |
| And now the sun's out. Huh! |
