Spent many summers there in the 50's /60's when there were a row of beach bungalows which were destroyed by high tides later on and that parking area would often be full back then!

So sorry to hear your sad news. You have been on a bit of an emotional rollercoaster over the past few months. Its good to have a plan to go forward but don't bite off more than you can chew. I would suggest shorter and less stressful targets with the aim of building up to greater challenges. Less strain on your body and emotions. All the best.

I'm so so sorry Claire to hear about your Dad. It really hurts doesn't it. I lost my Dad suddenly, and I thought I would never get over it because he was my best friend. You've certainly been put to the test this past year! I think you are amazing. You are so strong, and an inspiration to so many people Claire. I am the lady who said hello to you at the polling station. I have a challenge for you, but maybe not yet as it's pretty gruelling. The three peaks. I know you can do it. Take care ❤

It used to be my favourite place but I think everywhere is my favourite place in the Lakes 😆.

I wanted my last one to be a singular fell so it wasn't too much if people wanted to come along to celebrate with me. I've not a clue what my last one of round 2 will be yet, I think I'm going to complete them by area this time - just wing it 😆
