""Strands" My dear H So far we have carried out our programme, we are about 1 1/2 miles from "Windsor Farm" Nether Wasdale. We did Wrynose and Hard Knott in good weather & had a nice time in Eskdale. I hope you are doing alright without me. I'm feeling much better and sleeping very well. Love [name unclear]”
