From TNR 16-07-2009 Very Very Wet

Conditions:

Steady rain that eventually stopped just as we arrived at the pub, Mild.

Massive amounts of running water everywhere.

Stats:

A faff free night.

1 near mutiny.

Possibly a munro night??

Notes:

Rainow Scarecrows provide interest up the long grind.

Bank Lane very overgrown & running as a stream!

Wet inside & out = low spirits at Pyms Chair

Laminated A5 maplets = top planning

Big smiles on final descents

Chicken & Leek pie beats belly buster brekkie

Landlord & Dognobbler lubricate the conversations

Shaun unwittingly unleashes the 70’s rock afficianados.

Is Jack Black modelled on Pete?
