                        boys  These pages describeadventures 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. For 
                        the index pages of our various outings

                        on the relevant

   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 want to contact usclick on
