The recent warm and dry weather has forced the Peak National Park to restrict access to the Moors. Better safe than sorry. It is tinder dry up there at the moment. The forecast is for rain this weekend so hopefully any restrictions should not last long.

I hope there is rain soon. It must be hard to have your roaming place closed to early in the season.
Kim – Yes its reached us at last, though luckily it held off while we were walking yesterday:)Fiwa – So do I! Its not the same having to stick to the public rights of way.
