Bush Rummager 4,335 Posted October 13 Report Share Posted October 13 Nice to meet up with my space cadet sister today. Got an early walk in up on Birchen edge in Derbyshire. Took the old boys ball sniffer along too. Some nice views up there and also found a cracking little future camp spot too.. 8 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bush Rummager 4,335 Posted October 13 Report Share Posted October 13 I don't call her a space cadet for no reason. After getting home I checked inside my rucksack that she'd borrowed and found 2 coats and the dog lead she'd left inside! Luckily she was only 20 minutes away heading home, she did a u turn and i met her halfway. There's something everytime guaranteed!! Lol.. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
