Yes good idea but no one mentions the pubs name or location

Bring the pooch along, most Lakeland pubs are dog friendly due to the walkers and the four legged mates. Anyway the pooch can always sit in the car, i'll give him/her a bag of crisps or a pie.

Like so many of the best driving roads, it is named for the pub which is on the road!

You're quite right! I might have bought an XC90 by then so I might take that for a spin either. If I do I'll have 4 Volvos (temporarily...)

Will attend in the Amazon next year!

I'm coming up the M6 with my mate Al in his 1800 ( I'm riding shotgun in my 850R) will keep our eyes peeled for you both.

Salut!
