Currently looking like light rain and overcast for the uphill, drier and brighter for the afternoon. Have fun.

Light rain according to the met office, I've persuaded the wife to drive over now - what's the plans for meeting up?
Look for ken skipping from rock to rock like a child.

Have the shits dried up ? I won't tell if you're wearing some sort of nappy

I'd suggest we meet you in hawes

Nah, back home now, got to take myself and daughter to dentist in an hour so cant make it.
Parked in the pub carpark, wife went in there for coffee and I walked up the hill opposite the viaduct on the right. Took me by surprise when it turned up early, wasn't ready at all, didn't have time to change lens or anything - photos are crap. I might pluck up the courage to post one!

The worst aspect of all this is you gave that twat some money!
 
Just means it is still on my list to shoot, and I'll have to go back! Great views round there mind. I probably should have gone up the hill where the crowd was for a better shot.

You got a canny way up that hill then :)

I wanted to get the train below the hoizon, needed to be further right I think, or right over the other side - might have seen all of the loco from there.

You won't get a lot higher, maybe a touch

I was about 300 yards to the right where you get Ingleborough and train together in a tighter shot

From the west isn't half as good tbh
