Fantastic campsite. Clean, well-equipped and fleece blankets suitably-situated by a beautiful beach. Park and playing fields for kids. A single decker bus converted into a well-stocked cafe. Several shower and toilet blocks which were kept in very good order. We 'glamped' for the weekend in the converted Double Decker bus, which was pristine & very impressively renovated. Everyone who came to take a look inside was pleasantly surprised by how spacious and contemporary it is. We have no hesitation in recommending this campsite and would happily stay again ourselves. Great Yarmouth & Lowestoft are a stone's throw away - and we spent a day sailing on the Norfolk Broads, which is also a fairly short journey.
Younger patients may not be able to use certain medications at first. That's because some of the most effective medicines lose their ability to influence symptoms, and the sooner you begin those medicines, the longer you will have to be without them once they are no longer effective. In both cases, identifying symptoms of Parkinson's disease and finding effective treatments will help you live a more fulfilling and symptom-free life.The time has come, after many days of trials and training, to camp pillow actually spend some quality time in the hills and fells of the Lake District. My wife and I have been preparing for our big' walking holiday for a while now, getting used to our equipment, trying out different things, getting fit and exercising our legs, dropping some weight and eating healthily, all this as part of our new lifestyle of eating healthy and exercising air sofa regularly.
The bus dropped us off at Wythburn Church Car Park, not a bus stop but he dropped us there anyway, I guess he knew where we were going and dropped us right at the start of the path, which was awfully nice of him. We had already adorned ourselves with waterproofs and gaiters, feeling a little silly as my waterproof trousers appeared way too long and looked like jodhpurs, whilst Jane's gaiters made her feet disappear.At some points the path was so steep and rocky that it seemed to disappear, but a good look revealed the general direction of it through the rock strewn mountainside and we continued on. Eventually the path evened out on Birk Side and was nice and clear, the fog even lifting to reveal the stuff sack wonderful scenery around Thirlmere, Harrop Tarn being our constant companion on the other side, just below Tarn Crags and Bell Crags. The rain seemed to stop, although it may have been that we were now in the cloud that was raining underneath us, which if you think about it is rather awesome.
Here we came across a medley of paths, it was a little confusing but my GPS placed us on the head of the correct path and we continued up. This path was apparently engineered by some 18th century Army Major so that he could enjoy his retirement walking up Catbells, and it's still sound today. Catbells is a lot steeper and more rugged than Wainwright let on, don't be fooled by the nostalgia of this mountain, it will challenge you. The path was twisty and steep, some sections bare rock, others loose stone, there is a good scramble near the top that takes some thought and care for first timers like my wife and I, but the appearance of a young girl running down it and an old couple climbing it bolstered our courage immensely.
My new compass, which I am immensely proud of and wrote this post just to show it off, is a Recta DO 390, that I purchased of Ebay. I don't think this model is made any more as I couldn't find anything on the internet about it, except a board that mentioned it being around ÿ25-ÿ30, I got for ÿ8. After some research I discovered that it is made by Suunto in Switzerland, and some of the Map Reading websites and books mention that any compass made by Silva, Suunto or Recta are worth their weight in gold, so I guess I've sleeping bag got a good bargain.A lovely couple at the top told us the way down to Ambleside was easy, set out like a staircase of stone, well! At first we couldn't find the path down, just a cliff, down which we edged on what looked like a goat track, the path was much steeper than on the way up, incredibly steeper, one section we had to shimmy down on our bums. The path descended 1200ft straight down to Ambleside, we met others slogging their way up and shared the same lies [img]https://www.axisdraco.com/images/k/sleeping bag-053jsf.jpg[/img] we received on the other side nearly there, not far! |
