Where's the bleedin' sun?

Saturday 21st, weather forecast - cracking the flags. Mr Williams dons suntan lotion on sensitive pate at 8am - debates requirement for waterproofs, Mr Gough wears sunglasses for the first time in 09. 9:30am up Hanging Stone, 10:00am up Roaches with hats, gloves and fleeces. Bloody freezin'! What is going on with the world?

Anyway, decent walk over Gradbach, Ludd's Church and The Roaches. Marky Mark took new GPS and we still managed a short detour! The good thing was we knew exactly how far we'd walked 15.5km. Not bad in the new boots and Mark decided his new ones were going so well that he'd try sinking them ankle deep in mud - and they passed the test.
Very surprised that the next day didn't have any pains at all despite the slick pace we kept up during some of the walk and with the weight of the boots. Must be getting fitter.
