We owe the HUGEST gratitude to Mikey, his gorgeous sister Janet, and Sebby’s new friend, Martin who carefully guided the two ‘Rogie’s’ up to the top of Helvellyn!
Apparently Helvellyn is no mean feat. It is the third highest mountain in England (950m elevation). It took the trio roughly two and half hours to ascend and three to descend. Luckily they had GLORIOUS weather. It was cold and breezy at the top with patches of snow, but Mikey still managed to burn his face (his term is, ‘He looked like an un struck match’).
Michael’s final words are:
“I don’t think it has kick started a new passion, but I was very pleased to have done it!!”….(Mikey doesn’t yet know I’m roping him into our Autumnal ‘Steps for Sebby’ challenge….Watch this space!)
Here’s some snaps of them in action, look at that view! Well done guys, I’m EXTREMELY proud and grateful to you all xx
