Bross dove forward towards the fence but on my first call stopped dead in his tracks. The fence was secure in any case but good to know how responsive he was in that situation. https://raybradshaw.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=68334799 68334799 Low Cloud sets in over Blencathra https://raybradshaw.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=68334802 68334802 Riverwalk by Keswick Golf Club then off for a bit of retail therapy ! https://raybradshaw.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=68334803 68334803
