That's Kirkstone Pass - home of one of the highest pubs in England apparently. There's a photo of it on my facebook but my computer's being stupid about uploading it  You'd definitely love those passes. Haven't done the Kirkstone - yet

Yeah, we went in the Old Dungeon Ghyll and ate in the Stickle, didn't go to the NDG though... Mmmmmm steeeeaaakkkk... They were lovely, really friendly and proper old pubs 
And actually we were pretty lucky with the neighbours, no drunken singing as far as I'm aware. Just one very upper middle class lady trying and failing to make her silly named children do as they were told... Shheeeeeesh. But at least they went to bed early. |

We went that way in the car. There was a scared Dutch man in front clutching his steering wheel, nose pressed to windscreen, doing about 10mph. He let us pass... Bless 'im
