The perfect time to be up there :  Dawn patrol of the Mavic 2 Zoom  @  05h30 on a sunny summer morning.
A trig point to mark the spot, and only the sheep for company.

Thanks Fred. The hike to the top is extremely popular, and the pathway was getting eroded.
So the steps and pathway were embedded to prevent further damage.

Thanks David.  I love having these places to myself - like the gorge behind Peveril castle the other day.
It's only during the summer months that you can get the light AND the solitude, before the rest of the world gets up

I would enjoy the summer if it would let me,   just got rained off home again,   luckily I had just landed when it started.   Of course I got home and it stopped,   but its still threatening.

I was just about to unwrap and move the car and give it a polish but the heavens opened again,   getting a bit bored with it now.

I need to move it as the neighbours having their tree pruned and I don't want it anywhere near when that happens,   and if it stays dry long enough Id like to take it out for a run,  although with the price of v-power at the moment I might make that a short run.   Sadly its tuned to only run on high octane fuel.

Certainly not cheap to maintain and run.

Servicing is pretty reasonable but the fuel is shocking at the moment.

Yes,   but V power or any of the 110+ octanes have always been a good bit more and I refuse to use the Tesco version which is reasonable compared to V Power as Ive had bad experiences with their fuel.

Our car is diesel powered. In fact for the last 35 years we've always had diesel cars.

Mine came via Yodel but it mentioned Germany on the shipping label.  Either way you have it now.
