Kidder
arse was suffering
today so urgent
creams were needed
to soothe his tender
little bits.
Operation over the
pair headed off and
soon encountered
thorn covered lanes,
so no wonder they
picked up some
punctures. Chiefy's
UST tyres stayed
inflated but he
would have to patch
them up sooner or
later. The RAF were
doing low flying
runs, the jets were
screaming up and
down the valleys and
the pair kept diving
for cover.
The
Tan inn was
beckoning so Kidder
& Chiefy cranked it
and stopped for a
quick bite and of
course a pint or
two. Lunch over the
pair follow the
Pennine Way heading
downhill to the
river Swale,
stopping of at the
waterfall to take in
the views & top it
up a bit with there
bodily fluids.
The pair navigate
the valley contours
and stopped for a
rest overlooking
Muker and Keld, the
sun was out so they
dried off some of
there sweaty kit.
Kidder & Chiefy
turned on the power
from here to Reeth,
as a cream tea were
beckoning. Kidder
rolled into Reeth on
a flat rear so the
first priority was
strawberry jam and
cream tea's.
After eating there
buns and swatting
the wasps the pair
sort of raced up the
hill to the Grinton
YHA. As usual Kidder
& Chiefy ended up
sharing a dorm with
a couple of nutter's.
After a welcomed
shower and tea they
headed down to the
pub for a few pints
and recall the days
events.
Bedtime beckoned so
the pair headed back
up the hill in pitch
blackness guided by
the stars to the mad
house...and more of
our Japanese
friends. |
