    Me neither mate! Sparked a long dormant flame in me too! It has also helped to cement the old father/son bond, which can't be a bad thing in this day and age; just because his old dad sometimes cuts the grass in his bath robe and rigger boots don't mean he aint no fun anymore!

    Looks good Nat, really jealous.

    I have a need to get out.... but being poor in time or poor in cash always seems to get in the way. I have an important date coming up in the next 2 months which i need to prepare for so it limits my 'play time'.

    I'll be out and about overlooking Howden Reservoir this sunday having a recce at ground conditions as there is a charity walk up there in aid of our MR team on Oct 1st

    I have so much respect for you. So many fathers could give a hoot about their kids and here you spending hard earned time and money so show your love and care for him.

    Thanks mate but it was something that I had to do as so many young lads don't have a clue about the outdoors and my son can't wait for some more adventures!

    Thanks mate, it was a great location but just not far enough off the beaten track(we were spotted by a gamekeeper on a quad early the next morning, not the best alarm clock!but he was ok just concerned that the fires were put out when we left)
    Yes hopefully he will treasure the memories and not just remember me for telling him to tidy his room!!
