Intermission

There will now be a short interval whilst I get transported off to the source of the River South Tyne to walk the South Tyne Trail to Haltwhistle. I have prevailed on Maggie to take me there in just a mo - probably after eating a baked potato.....

I have my eye on a nice little camping spot just off the Pennine Way too..

And for those interested in such things, my pack weighs 19 pounds which includes a litre or so of tap water and half a litre of extremely cheap scotch. There is to be no link between the two liquids. I am carrying this stuff for training purposes, obviously...

I'll be back Monday...

And its nice and sunny!

Pic is a camp in S Tynedale on my Pennine Way jaunt a couple of years ago.
