Walk for Thursday 17th July

Hi All,

Great walk last Thursday. A solid trek (1000FT) up onto Grit Fell in hot sunshine. Pestered by clegs (until Doc  Martin produced a bottle of repellent ) All worth it for superb 360 degree vista. Yorkshire Dales (Three Peaks). Lake District and hints of Snowdonia and the Great Orme.  Nearer to ...the whole of the Fylde Coast, Winter Hill and Pendle.   All supported by the near horizon of the rolling curves of the Bowland fells. Wonderful. 
Had considered Littledale this week (a valley leading into Bowland from the Lune.) but that is a return to Bowland (albeit very beautiful) but the weather forecast is VERY hot so maybe a coastal walk may be a bit fresher. Soooo.... Cockerham Abbey has recently been mooted and although we've done it a couple of times it may be a gentler walk after last weeks strenuous effort.  If I can come up with a better idea (or anyone else ???? ) I shall email you. Otherwise see you at Anthony's 9.30 as usual.

John
