Towards Ulverston

We went to a talk today by Sir Chris Bonington as part of the Kendal Mountain Festival.  He has recently published his autobiography and he was here to talk about his life.  Very interesting and in addition to the climbing stories, it included stories about his young life, his parents, and the sad death of his first wife from Motor Neurone Disease.  The hall was full to bursting and it was a pleasure to listen to someone so interesting and articulate.

This was taken from Gummer's How just as the sun was setting.  I have just looked at my blip from a year ago and realise it was taken in exactly the same place!
