[Lakes] [Carrock Fell] [Lonely Boulder]

A couple of nice additions to the "elderly gentleman's circuit" at Carrock.
The "Lonely Boulder" is hidden in plain sight a couple of hundred metres south (left) of the Kirkstone and about the same distance from the road.
Two new problems:
1. The slopey groove on the right hand side. Sit start on the crimp rail then follow the fat slopers rightwards and pull onto the slab using a deep pocket and finish up this. 6B
2. The little prow to the left. Sit start using good hold out left and right hand on the bottom of the prow then up to a jug on the slab out left and finish up this. 6A+.
There's also a bit of a hybrid problem linking the start of problem 1 into problem 2. Similar grade.
