) My fave films were Patrick Berhault's tragically curtailed 82 4,000m alpine peaks in 82 days; the sheer heartstoppingness of Heinz Zak's 'Highliner'; Joss Naylor running 60 fells on his 60th birthday; and - for its spirit of friendship and palpable love of mountains across the generations - Leo Houlding and Chris Bonington in 'The Adventure is Not Yet Over'. Other highlights included the remarkably smooth (considering lack of rehearsal!) performance of poems from The Owl & the Cragrat; meeting new faces; good food at the Brewery restaurant; witnessing everyone's 'appreciation' of my infamous Indian Restaurant 'jokes' in an Indian restaurant; and generally being in The Lakes (particularly Saturday when the weather was great); and serendipitously (well, if you can use words like uxorious!) discovering car parking nearby... Bad points: rescheduled and cancelled films at short notice...

Yes, heard Richard read from his book 'Feet in the Clouds'. Great stuff - I'm not a fell runner, but felt compelled to buy it. It's really fascinating.
