Precision picking the best weather of the summer, Nic'O, SN and myself headed up to the Achille Ratti Hut in Nether Wasdale. Arriving Monday afternoon we settled ourselves in before heading up into the evening sunshine for a run over Buckbarrow. Returning via Greendale Bridge we chatted with Joss and his daughter and accepted the offer of a beer in the garden. The weather continued for the next two days with wall to wall sunshine. A good time was had by all. Back home to torrential rain at the weekend : )
