Northern Meet Anyone?

Uncategorized

John Manning’s (typical) last minute entry to the mammoth Lightweight thread has prompted me to do something I’ve been meaning to do for ages.

John is involved in co-ordinating a whole series of walking activities for the Walkers are Welcome Weekend in Hebden Bridge, which is to be held on the 12th and 13th of September. John is doing a talk on the 12th (about 5.45 pm) on his Pacific Crest Trail Walk.

I’ve friends in Hebden Bridge and this seems like a good excuse to go and see them. I wondered whether anyone else was up for a trip to Calderdale? We can support John, have a few drinks and maybe even have a little stroll around the hills.

I’ve attached a copy of the PDF/flyer for the festival

Oh :( I’ve just noticed that the festival people ban dogs from the moorland walks. WTF? I can only go if Piggly can go, as I can’t leave the wee lamb on her own.

She’s crying now :(

Sounds a bit odd to me — you could still come over though.

Were you thinking of going on one of the guided walks mentioned in the pamphlet, or just about going for a walk? If the latter then there’s no problem with Piggly attending. Naturally she walks on her lead when sheep, nesting birds etc are around. The pub’s confirmed that she can go to John’s talk :)

Nope – no organised walking for me. I am thinking about doing something with my mates which seems to be a walk all around Hebden — you’d be welcome.

Excellent, thanks! In that case (and barring disaster) we’ll be there :)
