We understand there are group meals on offer! Maggie would like lamb tagine and Clive would like the curry. Maggie does not require a pudding but clive would like the lemon drizzle pudding.

Thanks
Clive

Just to let you know that Lynn has offered to make pineapple and coconut cake for pudding. You're now spoilt with a choice of two mains and two puds. (I think that should be me fed for the week!)

I've put you down for the curry, Peter, we'll take some surplus in case anybody wants curry at the last minute.

We aim to get to the Lakes by lunchtime tomorrow, hopefully you'll all turn upn to a nice warm hut but by then we'll be in the pub!

Here are my pics from the weekend. If you've got some you'd like added then send them my way/drop me a line.

It was another amazing meet for weather, company and food. Let's hope we can do as well at New Year.

A great meet, thanks everyone! It rained heavily late last night and this morning saw sunshine and showers. These were snow/sleet at the top of the Kirkstone pass, rain lower towards Patterdal;e, but when we reached the summit of the pass we could see the ground was white all the way down to around Ambleside with a couple of centimetres of snow lying. Later we found the snow thinned out rapidly towards Windermere and had vanished when we passed Kendal. Pauline and I always get the fun weather when we stop over the extra night!
