United Utilities have a funny way of demonstrating that commitment in Cumbria.FellBoundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089687581260477621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-72017045722819679002017-09-16T20:39:41.966+01:002017-09-16T20:39:41.966+01:00You should have said, you could have borrowed a pa...You should have said, you could have borrowed a pair of my gloves.....John Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07569413172924501491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177918675979573010.post-3566651392860054172017-09-15T10:32:27.396+01:002017-09-15T10:32:27.396+01:00It's often claggy up there Ilona!

And I left my crampons in the shelter and some prune advertised them a bit later on walkingforum.<br />I have a new pair of gloves now, Dawn!<br />Quinn - British weather can do anything at any time.
