STILL CAMERA WRECKED COLD AND WET

It was a weekend I could have well done without nearly three days of cold, mud and rain and along the way I scratched my glasses lens and the water wrecked the still camera which was about four weeks old, you may remember it arrived the day before my Ukraine trip. Ready for a shower and bed and hoping for a long sleep and warmth. While we were away our Youtube site hit another one day all time high and the cumulative average is riding a high. Encouraging as i had to spend nearly £500 today ordering up a replacement still camera ready for the next film trips although if the weather carries on like this they will be far and few between, what a rotten end to a dismal summer one of the worst we've ever experienced in Cheshire although I'm thankful for the trips I did to the south which gave me a sun boast and plenty of warmth which yet again exposed the gap in climate between the north and south.

Thankfully I've got photos from two of the days walking, the guide to the Peak Pilgrimage proved to be something of a mixed blessing as between directions the author plummeted into rambling Fred rumpole status and you tended to get confused, not something you want with a dozen people following your every step. A few DVD orders awaiting which we'll sort out in the morning.   Perhaps we'll get a few minutes tv in with the soaps before bed tonight. We've got a Polio Fellowship meeting Thursday which means with catch up tomorrow I'll need to find a weather window Tues, Wed or Friday.  Anyway here are some pictures of the sunny intervals we enjoyed between showers on Friday's walking in the Peak district, I have managed to consume a good number of cakes so something good came of it.
