Hi Alan,
Thanks for the Newsletter and the stunning photos. What a great start to the winter!

Wednesday before Christmas was a super day for a quick tour over the Cumbria / Durham border.

Boxing Day was a day of two halves down here. In the morning we managed to catch the soggy end of a good run of cold and snowy weather - semi frozen turf low down in Nethermost Cove and deep drifts. In the afternoon the sun came out for the mass ascent of Blencathra. All we need now is some of your really low temperatures to sink south.

Best wishes,

Phil at Freetime
