The Bolt. |
It’s been another busy week. At work I’ve been out with volunteers and we
have taken down the large picture frame that was on Crow Park overlooking
Derwentwater. It is now in storage and
we hope to give it a new site next spring.
It has been a hugely successful installation and we have had lots of
positive feed-back. We took the
opportunity to do what so many visitors have done this year and our volunteers
had their images framed against a stunning backdrop.

Also with the help of volunteers, the
winter programme of car park maintenance is underway and we have been
realigning the boulders that mark out one car park ready for resurfacing. We
will then be marking parking bays to help visitors make the best use of the
available space.
I then
took a few days leave and tied them to a weekend so that I could do a First Aid
course with the Mountain Rescue Team. It
was one of the best courses I have ever done.

... and then my turn to practise suturing belly pork! |
The course leader was doctor Paddy from WMT who taught us lots of
techniques e.g. cannulation for IV
access, suturing and appropriate use of drugs.
It was a course designed for advanced first aiders and for expedition
medicine.
