(16 Aug 2016, 11:55 am)Jimmi wrote I'm thinking of doing the Lakes again tomorrow. Going to try and catch the open top Volvo Olympian on the 508 from Patterdale to Penrith and possibly a round trip on the 77.
If I go away to Blackpool for a weeks holiday again next year I'm going to do a whole day there again, but this time I may go straight from Blackpool to Windermere on the train rather than get the 42 from Blackpool to Lancaster then the 555 although I was pleased I did that especially as I bagged a Volvo Olympian on the 42 but next time I will start earlier to fit more within the Lakes in a day as it's tricky doing a decent outing there from Newton Aycliffe due to travel restraints. May do Lancaster on a separate day, getting the 42 to/from Blackpool.
Will definitely be going sometime this week too though as I've been planning on going for a while and I keep on setting it back. No idea where I'm going to go yet but hoping to get a train to Carlisle around 8:00 haven't made a plan yet though.
