It was hardly dull, I was eaten alive! The ground to the east is all access land and I'm inclined to have a gander at that at some point - hopefully I won't encounter any irate holiday cottage owners or biohazards.Markhttp://www.beatingthebounds.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-80931329984269463282018-11-12T13:23:01.194+00:002018-11-12T13:23:01.194+00:00Unknown - Not sure why you are named "Unknown...Unknown - Not sure why you are named "Unknown" instead of "bowlandcimber."<br /><br />The slabs face north-west so I guess the sun will shine on them to some extent from mid-afternoon onwards.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-24139030665478914652018-11-12T10:34:32.130+00:002018-11-12T10:34:32.130+00:00I stand corrected.

On this occasion I was taking into account the limited abilities and feelings of my companion I would add that there was no particular objective to aim for here, just a matter of walking for a prearranged length of time. When I am on my own I always want to see what's round the next bend, or arrive at my intended goal and that is embedded in my nature forever.<br /><br />As for the slabs I would be happy to go to the top snd throw you a top rope down.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-86096413695001939632018-11-11T20:17:13.364+00:002018-11-11T20:17:13.364+00:00I hope you are not setting a precedence by turning...I hope you are not setting a precedence by turning back in the face of adversity. I don't recognise that side of your character, maybe other circumstances came into play.<br />I have had mutiny from my companions on similar days when I just battled on, perhaps foolishly, but all turned out well in the telling. <br />In this morning's rain and a rather dubious route I felt my age and almost succumbed but fortuitously I heard the 'The Last Post' in the distance. What could be more stirring than that?<br />On a completely different point are you trying to tempt me with yet more pictures of those slabs? bowlandclimberhttp://bowlandclimber.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-56549380332267129862018-11-11T13:25:53.880+00:002018-11-11T13:25:53.880+00:00JJ - to be fair it is not a public right of way, b...JJ - to be fair it is not a public right of way, but one wonders what they are protecting to justify such an elaborate set up.<br /><br /><br />----------------------<br /><br />Alan R - Maybe 30 years ago.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-16578804500064598922018-11-11T12:15:58.922+00:002018-11-11T12:15:58.922+00:00I image you two doing a limbo under that gate.I image you two doing a limbo under that gate.AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-22243215811913425042018-11-11T09:24:34.761+00:002018-11-11T09:24:34.761+00:00Is that locked gate legal?
