Instead another weekend in the Lakes for me. No the picture is not out of focus, it's me on the summit at 902m! in high winds (60mph+) and freezing fog (vis down to 25 feet!). Still managed to squeeze in the 3rd and 6th highest English peaks. If you know them, you know where to post the details! Although nearly got completely blown off the top, and misjudging the time totally, (I never wear a watch) walked off the final slopes in the dark! (It's ok you mountain rescue people, I went prepared with torches, light sticks, stoves, bivouac etc, could've stayed all night if I needed to!)
Is it the end of January all ready? K2 seems no nearer at the moment, and with an economic slowdown forecast and businesses being devalued by billions of dollars / pounds, I carry on wondering when that steel will be laid down. Meanwhile I carry on working!!
