My first early outing since my slide on a slippery road many days ago. I needed to see if I could get certain groceries as the planned weekend menu depended on them. Success.

Later, back home, I was cold . . . very cold. I decided to switch the heating onto override and try not to worry about the fuel bill.

After lunch, perhaps stupidly at a weekend, I headed out in the car. No parking spaces at Skelwith, the lay-bys at Oxen Fell and Yew Tree Tarn or Glen Mary NT car park. Eventually spotted a roadside spot in Coniston.

I walked up one side of Church Beck, crossed the footbridge, continued to the back of Coppermines Cottages and then returned down the road.
