I've just got back from 6 days walking in the lake district, it was AMAZING! Really really beautiful and rewarding, if not very challenging and painful! We set off on a 9 hour bus journey on the saturday
and arrived to a sunny Landell fell campsite where our base camp would be. On the sunday we climbed scarfell pike, the tallest point in england.
The bright and early on monday morning we set off for a 4 day walk, however this time we had 20kg of stuff on our backs. There were high's
and lows
and real lows
(that is me cutting my sock off my foot... 15 blisters created an extra element of pain!
but all in all it was a very amazing week! (and being with my 5 best friends did help!)
And the whole thing has made me even more excited about going to malawi in august!
yesterday i went to see my new baby cousin Leo Clifton (24-07-11) and he is adorable and so tiny! And here is him and his big brothers
( left to right - Ollie, Sam holding baby leo, george) i have the worlds cutest cousins!
And then last night i went to Sidmouth fringe festival as my cousins band The leisure Society were playing and she got me on the guest list, they were amazing as always in a beautiful folk/hippy setting! There new album into the murky waters is amazing and really worth a listen as they have been nominated twice for the ivor novello award, lost out to Lilly Allen and elbow. And my cousin (by her self) played with laura marling on the pyramid stage at glastonbury and they are good friends and she is hoping her band will be supporting laura on her tour.
I also wanted to have a quick rave about my love for arcade fire! I've been listening to their album a LOT over the last week, and well its bloody brilliant! so check it out! (Arcade fire - the suburbs)
Sorry i had a lot to say!
Until next time..
