 From 1 November 2007 the two National Trust car parks at White Moss Common (NY 348 066 ) and Silverthwaite near Skelwith Bridge (NY 341 037 ) will no longer be free for NT members.
Apparently the NT lease these carparks from the owners, Lowther Estates and this lease comes to an end at the end of October, from which point Lowther Estates will take over their management. Notices have been posted in both of these car parks and our thanks to John Paterson for providing this information. There are currently 21 other NT car parks that are free to NT members. |

 Modern life takes it's toll on family relationships. Alan Nolan and his son, Ian, found themselves distanced from each other following Alan's divorce from his son's mother. For 20 years, they were apart. Ian lived in Italy and Alan in the UK. We were separated by a physical as well as an emotional distance, recalls Alan, who was determined to reignite the bond with his son. |

 COMPETITION: Since the centenary of Alfred Wainwright's birth in 2007, there has been a massive resurgence in interest in the man himself. With the revival of the Pictorial Guides as a result of being saved by Frances Lincoln Publisher, the recent televising of Wainwright's Walks with Julia Bradbury and the formation of the Society in his name, there has been renewed enthusiasm for anything AW. Along with Hunter Davies biography of Wainwright, this new book also announces itself as the biography of Alfred Wainwright. This review (with competition) focuses on Wainwright, His life from Milltown to Mountain by W.R.Mitchell. |
