A weekend road trip. Forecasts are ominous. Flood warnings abound. Pass a sign outside a garden centre which offers 'Road Salt and Hot Soup'. The implication is that both will be needed.Make it to the Peak District. Greeted by an epic rainbow and a pub panini that is heroically loaded with ham. A blustery, pork-powered scramble up the gritstone tors around Burbage Valley, before a descent to the marsh below, with the intent of crossing the river. The marsh is waterlogged, as are my boots. An ill-advised river crossing that could have gone very wrong (sodden and wobbly turf 'stepping-stone', rushing brown water, camera precariously held in shallow pocket), but doesn't.
I have concluded that ham is a super food.
