1st September 2010
New month, long walks planned for quite a few days in September, so a little training was in order....

Busy Pendle
After a very fine day, Pendle Hill was a popular destination for an evening stroll. I set off at 18:50, just a little too early for a sunset, but then I wasn't expecting too much as the sky was quite hazy.
The Sky
High and wispy stuff over Burnley and Padiham.

Website Developers
The four gents on the summit are from a Nelson firm of website designers and developers. They were taking a few promotional photos and if I can find out exactly who they are, I might pop a link on here for their benefit. Lads, get in touch - see the "About Me" page. I don't host adverts on my site, but if I meet others on fell tops, I'll be happy to tell the world about them.
Pendle Summit
Today, I was supposed to be hosting a few photos from my brother Peter's ascent of the same day. He did a longer walk from Barley to Downham and I was looking forward to offering new views and angles. Sadly, his battery was flat. That's the camera battery, he managed the walk.
