In summer 1984 I did the Pennine Way with a pal of mine Des Butler. According to the National Trail website the Pennine way is 268 miles long. Recently I found the photograph album from the adventure and have decided to blog it.

Day 2 - Saturday 16th June 1984
Upon alighting from our tent in the morning we found two others in the garden. This was a team from Stockport who were to become our walking companions and having a similar philosophy also our drinking buddies. We left Standedge at 0845 in mist and took lunch at the White House (above).
View looking towards the pike from just past White House, the weather turned pleasant in the afternoon.
We arrived at Jacks Bridge at 1815 and quickly pitched tents. The Stockport lads were soon in and we recounted the rigours of the day whilst taking refreshments in the New Delight Inn. A good days walking.
