Wellness Walks: Great Great Langdale

4 intrepid Wellness Walkers braved the elements today and were rewarded with some autumnal splendour. Lots to be happy here...
Being told this is the best day of someone's month
People coming along full of ibuprofen as they'd rather ache than not try
The group using poles... Finally lol
Poor S. Only has non-waterproof town type trainers but said they'll always wash (I've made a note of his size and we'll find a way to get him some proper, or at least better, boots)

Philosophy Friday 
He said, "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to the people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. 
Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby.
But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
