Oops

Meant to say Roughting Linn sounds like a must. I'll base myself there and work out. Now comes the herculean task of persuading the missus to go. I could always disguise it as a romatic trip to the Lake District then hijack the weekend as usual. Failing that a little something slipped into her drink would do the trick ;-)

As I recall, Roughting Linn was the starting point of an excellent tour of quite a few amazing sites up that way, lead by the stupendously generous and knowledgeable Hob (on the way back from our secret honeymoon!) As a first ever visit to a rockart site, you can't go wrong! It's breathtakingly beautiful... I could spend hours there.

Hopefully yer missus will be so taken by it that she won't mind being dragged around the rest of yer itinerary! ;)

We love it up in that neck of the woods (Mrs G is originally from around there) and look forward to getting back up there one day!

Have loadsa fun, won'tcha?

Gwass, if you have Microsoft Silverlight, you'll be able to go for a cyber wander at Roughting Linn here:

If you click on the green 'PGric' (to the right) you'll find several other RA sites such as Ketley Crag, Chatton and some in Yorkshire thrown in for good measure - amongst other things.
