I still have a bit of a holiday hangover and was feeling quite lethargic this morning but I had a quick walk up to Beacon Fell. The weather was pretty well overcast but seemed to be clearing and the temperature was pleasant enough. Those two bouncing beardies certainly enjoyed their walk up there today.
