BOOT boys

These pages describe adventures of BOOTboys,
a loose group of friends of mature years who enjoy defying the aging process by getting out into the hills as often as possible!

As most live in South Lakeland, it is no surprise that our focus is on the Lakeland fells and the Yorkshire Dales.

As for the name, BOOTboys, it does not primarily derive from an item of footwear
but is in memory of
Big Josie, the erstwhile landlady of the erstwhile Burnmoor Inn at Boot in Eskdale, who enlivened Saint Patrick's Day 1973 and other odd evenings many years ago!

If you do NOT want your comments to appear on this website please say so
otherwise we will assume that we have your permission for publication
in whatever responsible manner we consider appropriate.
