Merry Christmas from KR Guided walks

We hope you have a Happy and Prosperous New Year too, best wishes for 2013.

Christmas day was a tad windy......

Windy Walla

Here's yours truly trying to stay upright and not lose me cap...... This was just on the path on Walla Crag near the summit cairn, I was trying to stay on my feet and reach the cairn too.  We only met one other person whilst up there.  Usually we go much further on Christmas Day but not this year the wind was gusting across the lake and it was a struggle, reminded me of the mountain festival up on the Hindscarth ridge where Jane and I could not stay on our feet back in May....

So its been a windy December so far and I wonder what is in store for the next few weeks. Meanwhile, we want to wish you all A Happy New Year from the KR team and hope you all have a prosperous and peaceful year and your very good health; cheers!

Bleaberry Fell Shelter

This photo is for Paul who was impressed with our Christmas Day walk up Bleaberry Fell.  So here are the intrepid duo shunning the shelter for lunch, actually it was too cold, so we had it down below at the sheep shelter. What does Bella eat on Christmas Day I hear you ask?  My Brussels Pate sandwich was the answer...... Muggins here had to have the other half. Pete always does us proud on these occasions so he had brought along a new flask full of chicken and leek cuppa soup, mmmm and get this, Champagne Truffles from Ye Olde Friars of Keswick. So now you know how the Keswick Rambles leaders manage to inspire the punters.................Next time you come out with us, ask Pete for his gastronomic tips!

Have a good one.

It is getting late on Christmas Eve and we are going out for a quick drink, then a Carol sing in the Market Square. So it only remains to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy, peaceful and prosperous New Year.
