I have had a mind to add a few extra pictures from a walk I did in the Peak District last October. The opportunity of a midweek autumn walk presented itself to me when I got a day off from work for time owed. The weather was definitely autumnal but this leant itself to a [...]

Ok, just a few more random pictures and this time no rambling commentary and yes this is probably because I am unlikely to get out properly until November!!!
