Cabin fever has set in so come rain or shine myself and Charlotte, today's favourite Child, set off out in Bella for the day. Absolutely zero shine and many many many rains 🌧

Home to Penrith then up and over Hartside Pass and down Alston Moore for breakfast at the Alston narrow gauge station Café. Roof down all the way :D

Hammered it down all the way to Kielder via Hayden Bridge for a quick stop then on to Hawick on the sublime A6027.

Roof down along the A7 picking up the M6 J44 - J40 for a roof down Italian Tune (a bit damp) then off out into the Lakes. Ulswater to Kirkstone Pass and down the Struggle, nearly drowned so roof back up to Keswick then home. 284.4 miles of pure bliss 😊

Recognise some of those names, you do live in a very pretty part of the world !

I was also out, managed a shame-faced 80 miles in The Peaks today, amateur in comparison. But I do like being out at this time of year with the roof down, definitely recommended . . .

Out is out mate, 1 mile or a 1000 miles. It ain't too shabby to be fair, less the rain.

Looks cracking day out Andy, whatever the weather.:thumbsup:
I had to take #1 son back to Sheffield yesterday so was planning on taking the Zed. Unfortunately I could not see down the garden due to the fog so used the daily instead. :(:arghh:
