    Hi Dick
    Two of us were planning to go to Borrowdale to climb on Sunday, but current forecasts not good.
    What are your thoughts about the weekend/Sunday?

    Clearly the current forecast for Sat seems unsuitable for climbing in Borrowdale and almost everywhere else and it looks wet enough to discourage walking. Unless the forecast changes I am thinking of putting off travelling to Lakes until Sunday.

    I will be going to the Lakes on the Sunday for other reasons. The Sunday forecast is less definite but still includes more risk of rain than we would like for climbing. It might be a good day for a hill walk, possibly in the East of the Lakes.

    Six members have expressed an interest in this meet so far. I am intending to wait to see a forecast this evening and then contact the people concerned before making a more definitive posting.

    WALKING IN THE LAKES
    It will come as no surprise, with the weather as it is, that we are not camping in Borrowdale this weekend nor are we expecting to climb there.

    However, the forecast for Sunday is far from bad and it looks like there could be sunshine especially p.m.
    So three of us at least are planning to walk in the southern/eastern Lakes on Sunday. We will be meeting up at Long Preston by 9.00am. where we will confirm our intended destination. The current thinking is perhaps to walk in the area of the other Borrowdale. We are not aiming for a very early start as the weather is expected to get better through the day. WHY NOT JOIN US. Ring or Text me if you can on 0797 485 3146.

    I understand that at least two folk are aiming to climb somewhere in the dales Sunday pm. Why not post something if you are interested in meeting up with people to climb.

    Two of us are planning to climb in the Dales on Sunday aft, if it’s dry.
    Possibly trad at Ash tree crag, or similar.
    Will confirm venue etc on whats app on Sunday morning, when we know how the weather is.
    Chris
