After a short break, it was nice to get back home and back to even hotter weather here than abroad! Of course, there were lots of things to do today but I managed to escape for an hour for a quick walk up to Stickle Pike with Angus who was glad to be free again and to have a nice cooling swim.

It was so hot today - straight in, no messing!

Great Stickle and the Duddon Estuary from the southern cairn on Stickle Pike.

Harter Fell with the Sca Fells in cloud in the distance.

All this heat has made my tongue grow extra long.
