Charlie joined Richard on a trip up Great Gable for the remembrance event at 11 am on Sunday. Set off from the ODG at about 8.30 and made it to the summit just in time for the speech and silence. Perfect timing. Very well attended and a pleasant atmosphere. Would guess there were over 1000 people on the summit. An impressive sight.
Mixed weather meant waterproofs were needed for some of the day but the mist lifted occasionally to allow for some lovely lakeland views. Bagged a 'synge' on the return!
Meanwhile Tim and John rode some of the South lakeland roads, fortunately in somewhat drier conditions.
Back at no 7 it was premature birthday present opening ahead of Clara's 1st birthday on Monday.
A fine way to round off a lovely weekend. My favourite whisky and planning a route for ennerdale.
