Field Notes #3
Mint Cake Shenanigans
Route. Town and back
Distance to Kendal from front door. 7451 steps
Wainwright Fells Climbed. Zero.
Wainwright Tally. 163 climbed. 51 remaining.
Shopping List: Collect altered trousers from that little shop of the market. Bar of 85% cocoa chocolate. Pint of Guinness.
Not on shopping list. Kendal Mint Cake. Best avoided in my opinion.
Notes: Sub £5 Guiness. Plus 32 degrees c temperature. Yellow grids on road. FP 9’3'“, a Fire Point where the early fire brigades drilled down into the water supply to tap water to fight a fire, then marked the spot for future events. These appear all over town. Stuffed birds of prey. These do not. Earwax #1. Earwax #2. Not often you see a town crier on a bus.
Kendal Mint Cake is not my favourite, either, but it is an efficient sugar delivery system if one is caught out in extreme bad weather and needing of an energy boost. As I've recently been diagnosed as diabetic (type 2) it's definitely off my shopping list.
Those knitted post box covers have also made an appearance in Essex. Weird.
Great set, as usual. Keep up the good work, mate.
Love your notes Paul and the pics are great😀😀
