GPS

The other day, Daddy bought a keyring GPS to measure how far I 'walk' compared with him. He bought it on eBay.
I wore it for the first time on our recent walk up Dow Crag and Coniston Old Man and the results show that I walked 3 times as much as Daddy on Walna Scar (open ground). Funnily enough, Evan Davis was on yesterday's Saturday PM programme on radio 4 saying the same thing. Overall I did 2 times as much from the start to Goat's Water. Daddy had to take it off then because of my love of swimming! It doesn't look as though you can download my route, which is a shame, but here is Daddy's. Notice the Brocken spectre at the top of the Old Man. Daddy got really excited when he saw this.

Reunions in the Lakes

I love reunions.  It means I can make a fuss of my friends and they can make a fuss of me.  And in the Lake District, it is even more special.  Here are some of my favourite piccies.











I have just enjoyed a fortnight in the Lakes and done some more bagging.  Here are my (longer) walks.

Ah, bliss!


I've now got the house to myself, but it's a bit quiet without Amey & Tigger.
