WW 12th April 2023


There is definitely something going on, why else would the Ditsworthy Warren track be under repair?

Storm Noa certainly was doing her very best as we left the Scout Hut - proper blowy. Along Edward's Path with the gale behind us to the warren - the only possible spot for a cuppa this evening. Out along to the fabulous Drizzlecombe where the hint of the sun setting could be seen. Steadily, steadily up by Giant's Basin to Higher. Time to make the turn slightly into the gale to seek Eylesbarrow Mine. Then, time to face it full on, and what a real gale it was. Down the track. (The best technique seems to be just to try and fall flat on your face then stick a leg out.) Finally back to the car and on to the Royal Oak - in time for a pint this time. 

A jolly fine evening to be out and about.

You really do have to be there ...
