This guide arrived today, but I can put it away for quite a while yet. 

Almost as soon as we'd booked flights for three weeks in the Austrian Alps next summer walking the Peter Habeler and Reichen routes, Elizabeth decided that we'd all benefit from a bit of training! She's beginning to book our accommodation now.

Because I'll already be in the Lake District immediately prior to starting the training route I'll have my car, so I'll need to find somewhere to leave it for eleven days in Pooley Bridge or Patterdale... could be a problem!
