we went on sunday, loads of my favourate lanes have closed, its such a waste, ill feel better once there overgrown from lack of use and the bobble hats wont beable to walk them

Rangie3.0LtrDan:
I would remove the first 2 pictures from that album though, as the anti's have enough against us already without pictures of a discovery wading through water disturbing wildlife.

Lord Shagg-Pyle:
A few of those shots look familar. Are they on the lane that runs paralell to Coniston Water?
A mate and I did the Walna Scar road a couple of years back, and only meet one anti, who stood in front of our landys and stated that we were environmental criminals (yawn), eco-terrorists (bored) and that she was going to call the Police to have us arrested.
Bad move.
I asked her some questions:
1) How would they get there?
2) If they drove there, would she have them arrested as well?
3) Why did the Lakes Authority spend nearly a million quid repairing damage caused by walkers to a 1/2 mile section of footpath up Helvellyn, if 4x4's are the worst offenders?
I then pointed out to her that she was in fact obstructing me from using a recognised highway,lawfully, for which she could also be arrested.
She got very snotty.
I told her what I did for a living.
She went away, a little subdued.
Hurrah!

graham:
The 2 photos showing the disco wading is a ford on a public highway.
