Txn.  That'll B the Lake District and North Wales then  ;D.  As well as parts of Scotland.  We walked in all weathers years ago, I've learnt 'better' in recent years  ::).

I'm reading a lot about those involved with the SOE ........ and how MI6 hated them!

It's East Anglia, Kent, Shropshire and Dartmoor. Don't think North Wales would qualify  ;D

 :lol:  that's my problem living in a country without Borders  ;D as well as not reading the question: we were told to read at least twice B4 answering  :D

Well East Anglia has less rain than the remainder of the UK.  When it rains/snows it's straight from Russia with nowt to stop it! 

DH has ordered another book about an SOE - once read I will keep them together and sell as a 'set'.

The book isn't about the wettest counties it's about walking on a rainy day in four different counties.  ;)

I've long done with walking in the rain - when we went to the Lakes with the  :scottie: we never had enough towels for her and I also took a blow heater which she would lay in front of, gently blowing her feathers.

I can't read at the moment. Lose interest after ten minutes. No real attention span now but I used to read all of the time. Sad about that  :'(

I’m much the same. I find life events saturate & I can’t concentrate to read a book anymore. Feel I’m missing out on any latest authors.

Is there a best way to listen to books wouldn’t mind trying that now ?
