Fire risk closes Peak District

Following a prolonged dry spell, the fire index has reached a critical level and it's looking like all open moorland in the Peak District will be closed from today until the weekend.

As occurred last year, climbers and walkers will still be able to use public rights of way and access the climbing edges.

Watch this space for updates.

Quite this is the changes i've been waffling about chimps
Time to use Your Higher powers boys - the white stuff
The lines are being drawn around us ever tighter and we still cling on
Go and see Sensei Andy Barker he will sort your grumbles out
 :google: or alternatively in London Sensei George Andrews
Tighten up
THe way it is going is ever tighter lets bring them back to fashion though i never had the legs for them
Thank the boys for the Climbing Works - still sweating for it?

As for the grit and peat these are treasures in our country so lets not destroy them
The peak peat is what divides the countries fauna and flora betwixt north and south
The peak is clearly the heart of out country
Lets not destroy it
Kinder Scout an old Norse name meaning Water Falls Over which if a fire goes of we will need
Irresponsibility lies around us at all levels and not just the punters hot shots
I've seen a top British climber pull part of a nest from the cat walk at Malham just so she could climb a route the one with the big under cut, i felt like giving her an upper cut, i refrained bitch, the swallows were nesting and i told her and still she when for glory, what a cheap cheep thrill, idiot
We need to take responsibility at all levels the Earth has had enough we are merely limpets clinging on for dear evolution, we need to slow down

The giant giant oak out the back of our house has burnt out
Been set fire too by chimps ill educated boys no doubt
The heart of the tree reliquised of its root
All still it holds on to life by the threads of its bark
Listen we are all barking up the wrong tree
Lets sort it and not be overcome by the planes of desire
We are all in this together so it's no good getting upitty

As for the white stuff not guilty only did it twice
More tom foolery

the day will come when we can no longer use it mark my words

I feel gritstone, like an erogonous zone
An apple in the garden of the Goddess's rock.
Phallic forms of pure wind, water and gossip.
And the donkey's tell me we are all punters.
But of course the fleeting elite say everyone else and thus the world appears a little wonkey.
Pure monkeys are no sponsored heros, waiting fot the snake to uncoil.
Impure snakes a lye in waiting.
I heard its all in the satellite starfish navigation system.
They see little chimps defiling sacred ground, the snakes hiss pissed of at boyish antics - go sling your karabiners, you're not welcome in the garden of Eve.
Piss in you own good corner.

Yours in faith, Why ZZzzzzz?  Tripitaka.

PS A swallow told me whilst chiselling the dragon or was it the Seventh Aardvark?  You know who you are, come get some fun.  Quick to the windmills Sancho Panza.
PPS  If some fakir lost his clip stick and coil at Killsney give us a buzzer.  Dog-and-bone, nah, mate, the ravaging savage.  G'day Mate, sorry what?
Primate!
