Ingleton's OvergroundUnderground festival (www.ogug.co.uk) always seems to be hit with wet weather, though in patches this weekend - that's the problem with holding it on a Bank Holiday weekend! Still, there's been plenty to enjoy & instruct & there's more on Monday & next year to look forward to.
As part of the festival, friends in Cold Cotes, a neighbouring hamlet opened their converted barn to show off Margaret's landscaping business & Kevin's watercolours & prints, many of the immediate area, including the iconic shape of Ingleborough. We have our eyes on one or two of his pictures. Look him up on www.kbwatercolours.co.uk
After getting home from that Jack & I set off for his walk. Well, my walk today. With Three-Peak guests in exhausting themselves on the 26 mile circuit of Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside & Ingleborough, & no chance of a long plod tomorrow or Tuesday, we'd better get a good one in today. So, we made the top of Ingleborough inside 70 minutes from home, faster than I've* ever done it, (*=dog assisted. 6 legs better than 2. Would be a lot slower without!) before or after accident. Then back home 2½hours after leaving it. Nice hot bath & a doze for Jack.
