I would loved to have joined you on that walk around Woodditton, it’s such a beautiful area. Now then, how are your blisters?

I shall be walking in the Forest of Dean this weekend, wish you were coming too.

I know just how boggy Kinder Scout can be – I once got stuck up to my knees and whilst extracting a foot I ruptured my calf muscle – which duly swelled to double the normal size and saw me in hospital on 20 minute observations lest a blood clot formed. Haven’t been back since which is a pity.

Sending sympathy for your feet – mine were the same in Scotland from my new winter boots. Ouch.

Hi Sally. Glad you enjoyed the walk, i did it many years ago. Camped over night in Hope Valley, after walking from Hope to Mam Tor, down into Castleton and along river back to Hope. De-camped then went to Edale. Excellent!
