The Last Weekend


Two days of fun.

Day 1

Repaired the passenger footwell.
Welding fun.
Not a bad job.
The welding into mid air was rubbish making a little fillet and running a weld around would take time but easier in the end.
Day 2

We went for a walk
This time I can remember what happened.
We went on a hunt for Minning Low

this picture from Megalithic Portal

As the picture suggests it dominates the landscape but it's the trees what do it.
When it was a what ever it was in the whatever age there would have been trees a go go.
So the monumental landscape I see is not what it was placed in.
And you can see it from Green Low.

Blogger Chores

We Went on a walk
I'll have a go at some inspiration but I think Google Earth is still broke on this little linux notebook.
And
Yes
I can't remember.
And
Yes
It still is broke.
So you'll have to make up some narrative.

Adventures in The High Peak Part 2


Or maybe it was this track that was crap - An hour in and it still hadn't found any satellites.


We went on a walk
etc etc

If you look on Google Earth or some other similar thing you can interpolate for the finish to the start.
We went up Ashop Clough to get to the end of Kinder.
Fooooookin' Great day out.
The horizon line in the picture above is 250 ish m above your brave photographer.

The long Weekend - Part 3 another walk

Or

adventures in the high peak part one.
We went on a walk.

As I've lost the waterproof holder for the iPhone I have to put it in my pocket.
Turns out the layer of cloth is sufficient to interrupt GPS signal.
WHAT!.Link

Unbelievable but true.
So the track isn't that good.

Long Weekend Walk Part 1

We went for a walk.

This was meant to have photos and all sorts attatched.
But ....
I'm bored with photos.
A return to the 'good' old days.
No camper - still being serviced.
So walk to the bus stop, get regular bus to outskirts of Sheff, walk to Bakewell and get bus back.
A fine expedition!
I was knackered but happy.

Communication Breakdown


All sorts of stuff seem to conspire to prevent me communicating with anybody.
That stuff is ...
College Work
and tiredness.
Some I have to concentrate it into bursts like this.
Here we go...
(ellipsis mmmmmmm)
Last week;
  • against all odds
  • competing against potentially billions of other competitors
  • in a game of skill
  • and intelligence
  • I won
A prize so valuable.


Cyrano D'nutjob
A Genuine Rubber Nose!


Today we went for a walk
Here's a slideshow as well.

I missed out that this medium itself conspires to frustrate my efforts to communicate.
Isn't this meant to be information and COMMUNICATION technology.
I've spent the last 2 hours trying to communicate.
It's too much hard work.
Here's some more stuff.

New Luxor!

Today's walk revealed a sensational truth
Ancient Egyptians colonised Derbyshire and discovered cement and concrete.
I have proof

The newly discovered Derbyshire Temple.
The newly discovered Derbyshire Temple.


Queen Hatshupset's Temple
Nuff Said!

In Search of Hob's House (Part 2)

We went on a walk



Fred's book describes a spectacular landslip in Monsal Dale.

Last time we went to find it we walked past the path up to it and weren't arsed to climb back up.

This time we searched from the bottom up.


Missed it.

Couldn't be arsed to climb back down.


Bollox!




Next time we might try from above by ropes or something.





BTW it's this Hob's House not this one




You might wonder what's all the fuss?


I've still got rocks in my head - maybe it will pass.
