🎬🏉 Mud, Sweat & Tries. I made a film that celebrates grassroots sport and shines a light on the true importance of rugby, and all sports for kids. The values it instils, the lessons it teaches & the friendships it creates. ⬇️Click link to view youtu.be/1aXpmk3UC3A?si=LlvT…

Lovely pint of stout in the Wainwright in Keswick. Usually does my head in how busy it gets in Keswick, it’s a right ball ache usually but was pleasantly surprised.

Beautiful day in the Yorkshire Dales yesterday with my lad. A little dusting of snow on the tops and a sunset to end the day.

TNT Sports are saddened to learn of the passing of Ricky Hatton. A two-weight world champion and a beloved figure in British boxing, Hatton’s legacy is defined by heart, passion, and unforgettable nights in the ring. Our thoughts are with his loved ones at this hard time.

If you know Jennings and the Cumbrian dialect this is a perfect name for their new beer. Genius.

I’d always fancied Scafell Pike in winter so took the lad up it and neighbouring Lingmell this week. He bloody loved it.

Wasn’t the hills I had in mind but conditions meant a last minute change of plan and I diverted to Troutbeck to walk up the tongue. The only human activity I saw all day were the 3 RAF planes performing low level flying manoeuvres for about 20 minutes around the valley.

Apparently a real ball ache to make Knightmare. Took hours to switch between rooms due to slow technology. But as kid watching in the 90’s, this was elite TV.
37 years ago today, Knightmare's first dungeoneer set out on a quest. There was no turning back.

A little work trip north of the wall for a couple of days. The frozen tundra of northern Scotland. Except it’s warm and bloody lovely. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Ah, bloody hell. A genuine Cumbrian legend. For those who don’t know him, look up his fell running achievements. Not bad for a farmer from Wasdale. Nice words @terrybnd
The word legend is often used too lightly nowadays. RIP JOSS NAYLOR MBE 😢🌈 You REALLY were and always will be a legend. I’ve no doubt he’s running about in the heavens looking down upon his ancestral home of Wasdale. RIP friend 👍 #lakedistrict #legend

Turned 40 last year and set myself a challenge to walk The Burnley Way in a day: a 40 mile loop of the areas hills, moors, woods and canals. Did it on Friday. ✅💪 42 miles, 16 hours of walking and 2 Scafell Pike’s of accent Stunning local scenery. Wildlife. 2 sore feet.

Took the lad walking up Grisedale Pike to see if he could manage Scafell Pike later in the year. Turns out it was me, the seasoned hill walker that was blowing out of my arse and he was jogging up, just for a laugh. I’ve got fat and old and he’s a mountain goat. 🥾🥾
