I may put up the pudding recipe today...<br /><br />Conrad, I'm not really a 'bagger' but have spent much time with folk who have been baggers. I bought Bill's book last June and have only been noting Birketts climbed since then - around 60. I haven't done all the Wainwrights either, but noting the ones done can lead to different walks next time, so to speak. Despite having a friend who collects trig point numbers, I don't 'collect' those! Muncaster Fell isn't high enough to be a Birkett, but it is a Marilyn, as I'm sure you are aware, and it's one of Wainwright's 'outlying fells'.<br /><br />Jamie - sorry to hear about your toe, I thought you'd been quiet recently. We look forward to you joining us 'soon'. There was a good turnout for last night's stroll in the Wirral.Phreerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551842487502221703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-670908392024479748.post-18115677055984171092011-03-31T21:43:50.389+01:002011-03-31T21:43:50.389+01:00Nice stuff!

Are you ticking ...Sounds like a fun packed outing.<br /><br />Are you ticking The Birketts, and if so how many have you done?<br /><br />It seems strange that Muncaster Fell doesn’t feature on that list, and neither is it a Wainwright. It does feature on a list devised by me involving visiting all the trig points on various OS sheets, and I have been there. I have completed Sheet 98 (Wensleydale and Upper Wharfedale), and Sheet 97 (Kendal to Morecambe).<br /><br />Muncaster Fell is on Sheet 96 most of which I have done, but it was then left in abeyance as more long distance projects seem to have taken over. Visiting trig points can take you to strange places that you might not have otherwise thought of visiting.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-670908392024479748.post-25710159272986236922011-03-31T17:50:07.108+01:002011-03-31T17:50:07.108+01:00Nice write-up Martin.

I'd have sent you some pics to add to your slide show, but the pace on Saturday precluded any photo faffing :-)<br /><br />Fantastic job with the catering too. I eagerly await the Baked Lemon Pudding recipe -- on of the highlights of the w/e for me.<br /><br />Managed to get a nice walk down Chee Dale in on the Sunday afternoon -- in the dry :-)_https://www.blogger.com/profile/06386109424171711139noreply@blogger.com
