Two years ago, very shortly after we met, Liz asked me if I'd like to join her on a 'bit of a walk'. Said 'bit' turned out to be the fifteen mile route to 'Ell and back. Which goes nowhere near Elland but is organised by the Elland rotary club. It's also in the Long distance walkers association handbook and, by any definition but theirs, is a long walk. By the LDWA standards 15 miles is a social stroll, there is a 30 mile option as well for those that don't do walks under 20 miles.

We had a great time so we did it again yesterday. Despite the BBC weatherman gleefully describing Sunday's weather as being 'wonderfully spring like' the night before, it was a wee bit windy up on the tops. It's a nice way to spend a Sunday morning, and afternoon, and you get pie and peas when you finish, proper mushy peas and a nice pie which is mostly meat, and mint sauce. That's cuisine that is, especially when washed down with a pint of guinness.  ¶ 6:09 PM
