  1. Hey folkses ',;~}~

    Well, I got the hossie to remove my cast yesterday,a week early! I'd had enough of the damned thing,
    and 'd been full weight bearing for a couple of weeks anyhow, taking walks around the woods and
    river unaided. Anyhow, doctor guy says it's just fine now, carry on as normal!

    Bit weak, bit stiff, little sore, feels like it should be normal enough in another week or so ',;~}~

    Cheers!

    Glad to hear it healed up fast. A good friend just shattered her ankle, with 26 new Golden Retriever
    puppies in the house. We are now on call. We'd be over there anyway to play with the little things
    anyway, but it sounds better this way ;-)

    slipped myself. didn't land hard at all, but landed with my fibula on a pointy rock, separated

    know OF them, not been in them. i've had a poke around some of the lead/graphite/haematite mines in

    Well, they're worth a visit for some - we like to have the occasional get-together at the smaller
    cave, but lower down is the Cathedral Cavern itself. This one is accessible via a decent sized
    tunnel, and of a reasonable size. The accoustics in there are amazing, and we've had some excellent
    jam-sessions in there. It's too big, cold and damp to camp in though. There's a little climbing to
    be had outside it, some of the routes look interesting, if a little short (IIRC, all single pitch,
    maybe 60 - 90 foot?).

    Fair do's! Haven't been to those myself, although I'm sure my climbing Buddy Rob and my lil' bro
    Mark have taken a nosey around them.

    they're worth a look if you're interested in such things:

    lots of industrial relics; the mining museum at threlkeld quarry is worth a visit for background
