The Pennine Way




Oh dear!  A new TV programme has  launched, celebrating 50 years of the Pennine Way National Trail.  It was September 1989 when Mr Glis and I set off from Edale with our trusty dome tent, 35lb rucksacks, and equal amounts of enthusiasm. Several tons of bog and 16 days later, we strode into Kirk Yetholm feeling fitter than ever before, having walked 270 miles of some of the most stunning but challenging terrain in England.  Watching the programme has whetted our appetite to return to this wonderful walk that meanders up the backbone of the country.  I’m feeling exhausted already


A very rare sighting of the lesser moustachioed Mr B.
