Today we lolled round in the women’s centre as it was raining. Got up late and didn’t venture out till about lunchtime. We took the path that runs past the centre up to Pen-y-Ghent, a local landmark. It was a wide and easy limestone path flanked by drywall. A few muddy patches and puddles spanning the path, but nothing that wasn’t navigable for me with Eva’s help - she was in wellies! It was really windy going up, but fortunately the blast was at our backs. We turns around when we got to the cloud line. Everyone we met who were coming back down said it was ridiculously windy at the top. An hour up and an hour back, then a late lunch and reading/conking out (me) by the fire. All very satisfactory.
