Top Gear Ski/Paraglide Race
Sat, 5 Jul 2008 18:06:03 +0100
Did anyone see last week's typically daft Top Gear race against a couple of
skiers/paragliders? That looked insanely dangerous given how close they were
flying to the ground/rocks/cliffs/trees!
If anyone missed it, it's repeated on BBC3 at 8:30 tonight. The race starts
about 20 minutes into the programme.

TR: TGO Challenge. Acharcle to Inverbervie. [LONG]
Fri, 04 Jul 2008 23:28:41 +0100
Yes, I know this was over a month ago but I've been busy. Photos
still not sorted or captioned but I'll let you know when they're
ready.
For each day I have given my planned route (off my route sheet) and
distance/ascent. This is followed by notes I took at the end of each
day. The text preceded by "--" is c ...

Planning a long day on the fells around Buttermere soon, could anyone tell
me if there is any free parking in or between Buttermere and Gatesgarth
Farm. If not any idea on prices for pay parking for a full day starting
early morning till late evening?
Thanks,

Cairngorm Diary
Thu, 3 Jul 2008 16:40:19 +0100
I took a quick stroll the other week, from the Cairngorm Ski lift
carpark around on to Cairn Lochan, over the northern corries and onto
Cairngorm itself, before dropping down the cobble path (looked just like
Coronation Street!) to the Ptarmigan restaurant, and back to the car
park. Lousy weather, rain, hai ...

Breakfast on Butser
Thu, 3 Jul 2008 15:51:21 +0100
Not quite breakfast on Butser Hill, but my first coffee stop on today's walk
from Mercury Park above the Meon Valley. Set of at 7:00am from the car park
at the Sustainability Centre and followed the South Downs Way around to
Butser Hill. Glad the first mile was a woodland track as it started raining
and the ...

TR: Northern Arans 2-day backpack
Thu, 03 Jul 2008 11:14:55 +0100
A 2-day circuit of the northern Aran mountains, following our familiar
approach up the northern ridge and touring the eastern summits of the
range, and returning via the very seldom trodden north ridge of
Esgeiriau Gwynion.
Snatching a couple of good days in a generally unsettled weather
stream again gave us so ...

Food in britain
Thu, 03 Jul 2008 00:42:09 +0100
Although I live in London, I don't go walking much in Britain because
food, accomodation and transport are so expensive (and not very good).
But I hope to go walking on Exmoor in Sept and I shall be away from
shops for a while (5 days?).
I have no problem with this in most of Europe. Am just back from the

Hottest day on The Downs
Tue, 1 Jul 2008 16:26:36 +0100
Yes, apparently it was/is the hottest day this year ........ or so Steve
Wright said on the radio on the way home from my walk. Seeing as I started
out east from Harting Down (West Sussex) at 7:00am, I had a reasonable cool
start before the sun rose high into the sky. The South Downs from here is
one of my fa ...
