1990_101001 - Shorts

            Summer 1990 was notable for being very hot in Britain, and for our first child Craig arriving in the world. Needless to say not much walking got done.

However, Wayne and I did have a go at a challenge to walk as many Lake District tops as we could in 24 hours for a  company charity event. It was a sort of "Bob Graham" round but to our own recipe. We pulled out in bad weather after 19 hours having collected well over 25 summits and nearly 20000 feet of ascent.

The bad weather was predictable; the previous day was then the hottest ever recorded in Britain at over 38 degrees! Hence the shorts ... a bit too short to be rated Safe?
