Rothbury

 Martin, Claire, Kath, John, Adrian, Mike, Elaine, Marley and Daisy

30th November - 3rd December 2018

House was a few miles north of Rothbury.

Saturday we parked up in Rothbury, and walked a circular route to the north of the town before stopping for a pint at the Queen's Head. John arrived by bus.

No idea what we did on the Sunday, other than John getting an early bus back to have lunch with his family. 

Random memory - when we got to Rothbury, we realised we'd forgotten Marley and Daisy's collars, and bought new ones from the vets in the town




Obscure pricing structure for a carvery. Price for additional slices of meat are £1.55, £1, 45p and £1.

Hawkshead

 Martin, Claire, Ali, Emma, Kath, John, Adrian, Mike, Elaine, Marley and Daisy. 28th Feb to 2nd March Just north of Hawkshead, just before Covid started to impact on our lives.  Saturday we did a long walk to Windermere and back. Lunch in the village, then a shorter walk in the afternoon. Random memory - tasting each other's drinks when we were being advised to maintain social distancing.

Martin, Claire, Ali, Emma, John, Kath, Adrian. Mike, Elaine, Marley and Daisy turned up on Saturday morning. 6-9th November 2015 I'm a bit vague on this one to be honest.

Sunday, a stupidly wet walk from Castlerigg stone circle, which included 15 minutes standing in a field while Ali worked out which way we were supposed to go. Random memory - Rocks being washed down the road by the rain.

Martin, Claire, Ali, Emma, John, Adrian, Mike, Elaine, Marley and Daisy. Kath invited, but was double booked.  9-11th December 2017 Pinehurst Cottage, Thornton Russet The walk where Marley had a fit, not finding stepping stones, finding a weird pub, and not finding dinner on the Sunday (ended up going back to the place we'd had lunch).  Random memory - about a week later, we had a call from someone that had found Daisy's ID disk from the lane opposite the cottage
