Nov 20th 2009 Ladybower circuit but no port and cigar
Autumn, Aaah what a classic beauty she is.
Ladybower reservoir off the A57 on the Sheffield Manchester Road is always a treat, our very own Lakes in the Peak, but an umber gowned lady she is in the Autumn. Draped in a thousand colours between Gold and Red, the reservoir is merely the side act to the trees' moment to perform on the big stage that is 'our wonderful world'.
Love it. I threw myself round the circuit solo, Richard the Port man had had a night of excessive children, and I had the priviledge of an intimate evening as the light went down and the sun lowered itself into the golden light. Magnificent and unexpected the light hit the colours of the trees to perfection - magical light. The running was steady and the miles fell away as I'm getting fit now, but hey we need to : )
No camera though - doh! The original plan was a Si and Richard rehearsal of the camera piece for the book - so how dumb. Still they say it's about the moment and that wont be forgotten in a hurry but hey no port and no cigar.
