Hi Scrapman, hope I have the right person but I believe you lived on Rothay Road, if so it was me who called into your office ?? in Spain. The spanish guy who I spoke to looked and acted with complete bewilderment, I put this down to the fact that I mentioned Grimesthorpe and Owler Lane. May see you next time.

scoobz sorry to say that the 23rd is a definite no for me, we are going to the Greenhead on a birthday meal.

I would be willing to give you a hand Taxman especially if you want to go onto Kinder. Also I could offer a lift out there for 3 people 4 at a squeeze.

Please lets not have to cancel, if we have to pay a little more each so be it.

I have never walked in the Eyam area so I will try and make this one, it was good to hear that you all enjoyed the Longendale walk.

Hi all, thanks for such a good day out, but it's now time to replace some liquid lost during the walk.

Hi all will be along on this walk.

Hi scoobz obviously I don't know which route you are taking, but the main trail holds no problems at all as it incorporates a cycle track and a seperate bridleway. Not sure about your route back from Crowden but part of the route should be along a short section of the Pennine Way.

I never worked at Herries Rd for the bus company but I did work there for a time when we re-wired it in the eighties ????. I had cousins who did work out of there (Whithams) and got to know quite a few of the mechanics etc, and a superindendant ???? called Brian ??? who I met last year ??? out at the Derwent Dam, and to his credit he remembered me straight away. I have worked in many places both near and far away but always look back on Herries Rd with fond memories and many many laughs.

Hope to come along on this walk but will have to confirm later in the week

Hi robof1979 the toy shop was Kenyons, I used to live on Firth park Cres, and my in-laws kept the Wharncliffe Hotel for 19years.

Yes Dommi the motorway will be closed that's why the Bank Holiday weekend has been chosen.

Geotom yes thats when the cooling towers are????? coming down infact I believe all the preparations have been made already, charges etc in place. Info from the Highways Dept.

Hi Neoteric Year a long time ago Del Shannon Runaway 2 out of 3 ain't bad. Glad to see you made Tryfan, you will have to start at the Milestone Buttress next time and take in the Cannon, Adam and Eve, Bristley Ridge and the Glyders.

Hi Geotom, I will be participating in a little drink or two on the 20th and I think my sister and brother-in-law may be along as well. See you then

Thanks to all for a good day out now it's time to go and keep the British Legion Club solvent.

Scoobz I will see you at the carpark in Youlgreave I believe it's on the right hand side of the road after passing through the village on the road going out to Middleton.

I will be coming on this walk so if anyone still needs a lift just contact me either by PM or through scoobz as he as my phone numbers.

Hi all and thanks to everyone for the information on the heads in the wall and twinky for the craftsman name. I can now walk past them without all those nagging thoughts.

Albert sorry I printed run each year it was just terminology I should have printed takes place each year but I thought I was comunicating with an adult

Albert I think you are confused with the Edale Skyline.

Sorry Albert but you are wrong, this walk is also known as the bog trotters and is run each year using a team of 4. Sometimes Albert you can be wrong.

Hi all does anyone know what the significance of the stone faces arranged in the shape of a cross, which are built into the wall on Church Street. These are situated on the same side as the church but about 25mtrs from the junction with Mill Road, going up the hill.

Hi bobo now that you have done this walk, why not try the Derwent watershed, although this is a fair bit longer it does not have too many ups and downs?????. The views are great and you cover roughly Win Hill, Loose Hill, the Great Ridge, Rushop Edge, Brown Knoll, Kinder, Bleaklow, Derwent Edge, and part of Stannage Edge and back to the Yorkshire Bridge.
