It was an overcast day so we picked a little local delicacy to try. I have been up Latrigg before but with Rachel's friend, Sarah. This time it was with Rachel. Cloudy, light mist and gentle breeze. We headed off from Keswick through Fitz Park. Had a few minutes deciding which way to go and finally settled on following the signposts and not taking a short cut!! Met some runners and another lone walker with no dog. Met loads of sheep and managed to get a sit down at the top. The clouds cleared enough for a view of Keswick. Drank from a few streams came down through a wood and ended up back in Keswick some 2 hours later. Had a rest, Rach had hot chocolate and cake then we caught the bus home to Cockermouth. Met Bobby the local drunk who had been locked up overnight in Keswick but was heading to the pub for another pint.

Awesome scenery Charles.... any good scents? Is it cold over there 'cause I notice you don't wear a coat in winter like me... I don't like the cold much but I loooovvvvveeee walks and am a bit partial to liver treats... Love always, your second best mate, River.
Loads of good scents - you have no idea and the sheeps poo over here tastes great, lots of grassy overtones, a hint of mossyness and very juicy and moist - sticks to the teeth a bit but it's sooo worth it. No need for a coat yet but might have to invest in something waterproof and warm for winter. Great to hear from you buddy - here's sniffing your bum - C x
....good to hear from ya chuck.. wish I was bagging something better than the same old walks around the block, the local forest and myself on the carpet in front of the humans while they are eating tea..... just trying to put them off their meals so I might get some human food, not working so far :)
Awesome photos by the way... thanks for the sniff and one right back at cha big fella - R
