Last week i mentioned that myself and my girlfriend are going away on Bank Holiday Monday to the Lakes to attempt to climb up the fourth biggest mountain in the United Kingdom.

We made it to the Lakes and got to the start of the mountain, the weather was… OK’ish at the start but when we started going up we realised it was a very bad idea to do this. The weather turned on us and started pouring down with rain, we couldn’t see any view at all. It was like we was in one big cloud - we probably was in a cloud.

I couldn’t take any pictures because my digital camera isn’t waterproof and didn’t want to risk breaking it. I’d say we got about 3/4 of the way up until people were coming down saying not to go up, it’s too dangerous. We ignored the first people that said this and carried on going up. Another couple was on their way down and warned us that is was probably 80mph wind at the top and the rain was not coming down but going horizontal.

At that point we started to make our way and went home. It was a good experience, it got very windy when we were high up. I made good use of waterproof clothing :D

Anyway, other than that i’ve not been up to much apart from working and enjoying myself.
