28th September 2013 - Pains on the Pennine way

News from "Up North" ... Sadly, one intrepid walker has fallen by the wayside with a tendon injury. Can't really say I am surprised the pace that they set for the first few days. These guys are awesome!!!
So sorry to see that the main team is down to two - but they are pressing on with undiminished enthusiasm...

Panic calls this evening cos the rechargeable lights are all running out of steam and I know where the plug is for the re-charging but not sure where it is in the van now  - always the way.. It is there - honest !! I put it in with the last light!!!......

Full set of eggs this evening and managed to harvest two bags of tomatoes and put them into the freezer. The peppers seem to be thriving so am avoiding picking too early !!  Delft managed another day without nappies so I think that her problem was an infection and she is over it now - that is a relief....

Today seems to be a day for wearing animal "Onesies" on the hike!!!   But it seems that they are meeting a number of people on the way and finding that there is generosity in every person ...

Meanwhile, I seem to have found a rather nice bottle of red wine here, and will take the opportunity of not drinking Château 41 this evening ...   I also seem to have accidentally bought a bottle of port as well as Gin and Whisky when passing TESCO.. What ??? I needed to spend £50 to get my 5p off a litre on petrol!!!
The car was thirsty !!!

I am sure it makes good financial sense.....

So listening to Radio West Wales on internet and looking at the options of SKY HD to get box sets of Hannibal and Falling Skies...     They say that Game of thrones will be available from October - so that is Christmas sorted .....
So .. Cheers !!!
