Derby Tup May 2019 10:35pm, 30 May 2019 31,730 posts	0 Derby Tup We were at CB when they had that royal wedding thing on - an anniversary or something and it was el scorchio. We were out late one evening looking up for the beacon that had been lit up on the Sca Fells with Kevin and Sandra the farmers. Kevin had some fantastic Herdy tups
beebop May 2019 10:40pm, 30 May 2019 1,388 posts	0 beebop It’s just hideous, Badger (not a morning person at all) but it is a lovely course...
Badger May 2019 10:57pm, 30 May 2019 10,814 posts	0 Badger Oh yeah, that I am looking forward to (and hoping the visibility isn't too bad!) Had to get in to work about 7 one day this week to get a document done that somebody important wanted in an unreasonable hurry, thought of it as useful training for Sunday morning
eL Bee! May 2019 11:11pm, 30 May 2019 20,474 posts	0 eL Bee! They have a nice Fell Race there. I quite enjoyed being baked to death on it in 2009
Rosehip May 2019 11:26pm, 30 May 2019 12,637 posts	0 Rosehip Hope it's a bit less damp and murky for you than it has been today! must get self fitter and organised for the series next year...
Badger May 2019 11:35pm, 30 May 2019 10,816 posts	0 Badger Just wish the weather forecasts would make their minds up! 0.5mm of showers in 3 hours is refreshing; 5mm of rain in an hour is too refreshing by half.
Rosehip May 2019 11:38pm, 30 May 2019 12,638 posts	0 Rosehip I've given up looking, it'll be what it is!
ThorntonRunner May 2019 7:17am, 31 May 2019 2,172 posts	0 ThorntonRunner Just catching up: Re Duddon Valley. Not been for a few years but can highly recommend the Newfield Inn in Seathwaite (for food, beer and being a beautiful traditional pub)
Mandymoo May 2019 7:26am, 31 May 2019 8,461 posts	0 Mandymoo Talking of food am looking for somewhere nice to eat for a birthday meal on 15th. Not too posh but good proper food - staying Keswick so would rather walk so can sample the local gin 😁

Somewhere you can confidently ask "which is the best chip shop in Keswick?" and expect an intelligent reply.

Lots of experience and good advice available here, from which B & B or YHA to the best fell for Grandma to climb :-)
