Seeking
Kirsty - not sure why my initial request disappeared, but anyway, seeing as (I think) the only car going back to Cambridge on the 11th is now full and there was a relatively cheap train ticket, I've now booked one from Oxenholme to Cambridge on the 11th. If anyone could give me a lift to Oxenholme from Seathwaite sometime on that day (my train's not until 4pmish) that'd be great. Or to some intermediary place from which I can walk/get the bus. Haven't completely thought this through yet but thought I'd buy the ticket while it was there as otherwise it'll be delayed by a week and the prices'll go up.
I have a space going to Penrith station, could possibly go to Oxenholme instead / as well, or lift into kendal or somewhere useful. (Dave)Becky - would anyone be able to pick me up from Penrith station at 9.30am on Sat and let me join them in a walk that day?
Oliver Knevitt and Gill James - we're getting the train to Penrith (in at 1553). We were planning on then getting a bus to Keswick and then to Seatoller and walking from there, arriving at the bunkhouse at 6:30ish. If anybody is free to pick us up at any point along the way that would be handy, but otherwise we're happy. As for the return journey, our train leaves at 7pm from Penrith, so we might make a day of it.
