I was half expecting to see a football match at the top of Scafell Pike! Not sure if I'll be going back there now it's been ticked off the list, as there are too many others to see first. I've hardly done any of the ones on Nick's list.
Won't be rushing back to the Highlands any time soon either. I went on a camping trip there in the late 90's. I say camping but it was more like SAS survival training. Imagine trying to bash tent pegs into solid rock, while someone blasts you in the face with a pressure washer. I much prefer to get a tan in the hills!
By the way next time anyone passes through Buttermere, be sure to stop for a beer at the Fish Inn. Best pint in the land IMO. Goes down nicely after a days climbing!
