Also visited IKEA. About 90 seconds after taking this, a mum was trying to pull 4 kids out of the pile.

Yesterday's walk from Scales to Keswick via Threlkeld - Lake District, Cumbria. X5 bus from Penrith dropped me off at Scales. Getting to Threlkeld required a bit of scrabbling at two streams. The second half was very easy going along a cycle path following the old train line into Keswick.

I saw what I reckon was a hen harrier just after these trees.

Back on the path after scrabbling over rocks.

Some storm damage, but not as much as I'd feared around Milngavie Reservoir.

One tree down and another heavily damaged.

Two trees lay across the path around the reservoir.

Fallen tree. Sign reads: Deaths have occurred at reservoirs

Info I'm sure you'll know, but for others:

The building is unusual in that despite 22 storeys, the lift only has 7 stops. The design was meant to echo the structure of a traditional Glasgow Tenement lying on its side. Each of the 7 levels comprises 18 homes – 6 upstairs two-bedroom flats, 6 downstairs two-bedroom flats and 6 single one-room flats with level access off the main corridor.

Thursday's walk around the Glen Tilt circuit, Blair Atholl, North Perthshire 📷 Fantastic autumn colours, especially when the sun made an appearance. Would like to walk this again in the summer.

On Friday, the car ferry at Bowness was closed (too windy). My success rate at getting across here is at about 50%.

No sightings of red squirrels while in their territory. One had scampered up to me in the local pub garden last time.
