If using a Mac, drop the Card Reader icon into Trash, and wait for 5-10 seconds before pulling out the card. Each device would occupy a USB port of your computer.

I judge my comfortable speed relative to theirs and try to pass them if I think they are fairly slow, which is not as easy as it once was!. Their routes seldom coincide with mine for long anyway, and it's quite rare to encounter them at all. Thanks James.

I also am not keen when my walks coincide with long crocodile lines of ramblers, do you hold back and hope they disappear or try and get ahead? You certainly don't want to get caught up in the middle! A lovely wild looking backpack there Geoff.

Mind you at some point I'll probably want to do the Deweys as well :-) I think what I’ll probably do is wait a couple of years until I’m sure my daughter can handle the car journey and then take the family down for an extended visit.

It would be a disproportionate effort to drive down there just for the two Nuttalls, that's what we did back in 1995 and regretted it all the way home. Better to do at least a 3-dayer: the two tops are quickly reached and then the whole northern moor is laid out ahead. I know what you mean about the driving, it's the M6/M5 through the Midlands that really puts me off, otherwise I might go more often. Thanks Matt.

One day I'll have to get my act together and do some walking on Dartmoor, unfortunately it is a bloody long drive away. Still I'll have to do it if I want to complete the English Nuttalls.

From a readers perspective it's a bit of a shame about the haze. I'd have loved to see the expansive views. However you and Mr James Boulter have convinced me that Dartmoor is somewhere I really need to take a trip to. Great writing Geoff. From a readers perspective it’s a bit of a shame about the haze.
