The old blue cycle route? Think most of the markers are still up. It’s all fireroads.

LOL @freeagent, love it.

What are the Orb like?

They were long and clear and
There were lots of stars at night
And, when it would rain it would all turn, they were beautiful.

There’s an Internet hack for this.

Get an object that is small but heavy enough to keep the rug flat, like a pint glass and place it on the corner of the rug that is curling. Then place a few ice cubes around the object and wait for the ice cubes to melt. Once the ice cubes have melted your rug should lay flat.

Let us know how you get on.

As an aside on swearing I’ve always wondered why you don’t see (hear) swearing on the radio as much as you do on TV?!

LBC late night phone ins would be made more lively with the inclusion of a few effs here and there.

Very ambitious mate, I love how you start by going over Helvellyn. The traditional route up us keppel cove. If it’s wet you will struggle. If its sunny and you’ve got the legs it’ll be the best day of your life. After descending past castle Crag into Grange I’d be tempted just to bomb up the right side of the lake and crack on with getting back instead of more climbing up the side of Catbells, there’s nothing to be gained there anyway.

Good luck, when are you doing it?

We want a full write up and pictures please.

My approach was to repeatedly ask them what company they were calling from and what their name is… let them start their their speal (speel?) then interrupt them and ask them both questions again and ask them to spell it and pretend you’re writing it down but take ages repeating each letter after they’ve said it then immediately after they’ve finished ask them again like you’ve just totally forgotten what they took 5 minutes telling you.

Jesus @ latest incident.

Bum her dog and then leave a scathing review on TripAdvisor.

Leave savage comments on her social media posts.

Get the kids to throw dirtballs at her.

Dogshit through her letterbox?

Shout ‘you filthy old bag’ whenever you see her?

Why on earth would you have a picture of a serial killer up in your drinking den? Very odd. Lovely house though. Compare what that money would get you in London.

Let us know how you got on Op?

What’s this track called and is it rideable?

Better as a hike?

From just near the end of Ennerdale and goes over to Wastwater.

Don’t give up so easily Op the lakes is a big place. My recommendation which would meet both your needs would be Ullswater. There’s a NT owned carpark on the road about half a mile before Glenridding which would be perfect for a paddle, lovely gently sloping and usually fairly quiet lake edge directly over the road from the carpark.

Then to wild camp you’ve got the whole of Helvellyn to go at or the other side of the road up near Angle Tarn or hayswater, loads of little hillocks you can hide behind and have the view all to yourself. Angle tarn is only about 30 minute yomp up the hill so you can stay in the pub by the river in Patterdale till its nearly sunset.

Have a good one.

I ain’t happy, I’m feeling glad?

Going to see it next week, reviews are all positives and Empire’s given it 4 stars. No spoilers but I wonder if they kill him off at the end!? 😂

Well I’ve already had it so that’s me in the clear… Phew!

The Gap ride from Brecon isn’t far away.

You’re wrong about them no longer being cheap Elshal. I stayed at the Patterdale one (which is up for sale) 2 weeks ago and it cost me £15 a night. Beautiful location for a hostel that one. Shall we stw crowd fund to buy it and employ me to run it please. 😄

Is the one I use. You can search by keyword or location. It’s also a pretty dam good route builder to generate gpxs. You can build a route using os mapping and if you switch to hybrid it shows you Footpaths that are on the ground and where the Stiles are. It’s great.

Makes me absolutely livid when I think too much about it. What sort of **** moronic country sells it’s water? Absolutely stupendously ridiculous idea! Apparently England and Wales are the only countries in the entire world to have fully privatised water supply and sewage services. Ty Thatcher… The Tories again! Scum.

They should see if they can find that necklace the old woman dropped while they’re down there, it’ll be worth a fortune by now.

The writing was excellent. Lots of the phrases have entered our family lexicon.

‘Can we stop for a moment sir my intelligence circuits have melted.’

‘I want you all to know that in the future I’ll come to think of you as people I once met.’

‘Please rush me my portable walrus polishing kit. Four super brushes to tackle even the trickiest of sea-bound mammals. Yes, I am over 18, although my IQ isn’t.’

Grab it’s ring!

*nonchalantly lights cigarette.

Wtf  the **** lying ****.

We need to know if she’s fit?

That’s some undertaking. Are you going to be faithful to the boundary and cycle the whole cutout round Buxton?

‘Rimmer, Aliens used our bog roll?!’

As an employer myself, I do find it disheartening that so many obviously intelligent people seem to think it’s all well and good to shaft your old employer off so willingly. If this is the level STW works at, what is the hope for the wider workforce in the UK?

yeah either that or people just trying to be funny on the Internet.
Of course I wouldn’t go in the disabled loo for a ****…. I’d go in the normal loo like everybody else!

Just go in and do nothing. Go round and chat to old friends. Go to the disabled loo for a ****. Research hikes, bike rides, holidays and things to buy. Email the wife. Play on your phone and slurp your brew.

That’s really helpful thanks Martin. I’ll think again. I love the remoteness of that area. Any gravel rides you could recommend within 30 mins drive of kendal?

He’s right though, it is a bit shit. Just because someone’s saying it’s a bit shit doesn’t mean they’re standing in front of a noose.
Is life one long period of drudgery peppered with occasional moments of happiness or is it mostly happy with occasional moments of drudgery?!
Music and my children get me through. I think maybe things seem much worse in winter. Get drunk and put some music on. Go to bed and get up again tomorrow. Love, peace and happiness…some other time.

Have we done the bet she didn’t see that coming gag yet?

Nominates his own disgusting father for a knighthood, what a repulsive cretin! There are no depths to which he won’t stoop.

‘Sorry but we don’t believe in fictional deity indoctrination naming ceremonies.
Frankly I have much less respect for you knowing that you do. I’m not sure we can be friends any longer. See you around.’

Honestly have you been to a christening. They make the congregation say stuff like ‘we turn to christ’ I’m like wtf. 😂 **** God is bs

What did she say as she finished?
Fandabbiedozy!

Butcher! 😂 thanks. Not sure that’s a step forward morally.
