After spending the previous weekend lying on the sofa with an exploding head, aching body and temperature, I wasn't really that enthused about getting changed in near freezing temperatures and going into Water Icicle, so when Pete decided that his back wasn't up to plowing through snow drifts and going underground, I was quick to offer to keep him company for a few hours.
We walked back down into the village and then drove to Hitch 'n' Hike to pick up the 200m of rope for the Cave Exploration Award. I promised to send Shaun a photo of the gruesome twosome with it. We then drove back the way we'd come to Calver Crossroads and went to Outside for a cuppa (and some tiffin for me) and then on to Matlock to investigate the antique shops, looking for a coat stand for Pete. We had no luck, but headed into Bakewell to take a look at the antique shops there - they're a bit more up market, so I didn't really hold much hope.
Eventually, we gave up and headed back to Kirby House for a cup of tea/coffee, and to wait for Paul and Keith to return from Monyash cafe.
