There's something highly suspicious about this post as (unlike all the
others) the spelling, grammar and politeness are all correct :o).

Just for that: anywhere in the Lake District, starting about 8.30 before
everyone else starts.

Well, thanks for being honest about the class, many pretend to
have a real question, which isn't appreciated. And of course the
answer to your question is Wasdale. But do tell your professor
he's a very naughty man and he must write out 100 times "I must
not tell my students to make test posts to live groups" !

I guess it's a fairly undemanding class, since you've posted almost
exactly the same message to about 10 usenet groups now and it's taken
you half an hour to do it?

Only in summer! Actually not far off if favourite=most walked as I always
visit Cat Bells and go across by launch. (Aged Parent's ashes scattered
there - yes we went well away from where people sit, on a steep bit where
you couldn't sit and scattered them in the longish grass, unlike some *rse
who had clearly scattered some right on the top *on the path* for me to
scrunch over and another who insisted on erecting a memorial - both right
out of order IMHO).

It doesn't emanate from Scotland[1], that's why.

[1] I have friends who are Scottish; I'd love to go to Scotland; I think
Scotland is a wonderful, beautiful country. So if you're Scottish
please don't take my remark personally because you know full well what I
mean.

I don't have a particular location in mind, but the sort of place I want
to visit has rugged hills to walk up and gaze at in awesome wonder,
lakes to look across and bathe in and natural peaceful deciduous
woodland with red squirrels and other wildlife in to stroll through.
So, where am I? Lake District I guess, even though I've only been there
a couple of times. </dream>

This is my favourite ridge to hike:

520/1554 Marilyns - 67% to go 60/89 Donalds - 33% to go
61/211 Irish Hewitts - 71% to go 20/220 Corbetts - 91% to go

A fine late summer evening, and the walk back from the crag on Lundy.

If I said, it would lose its appeal. I'm always the only person there.

"share" is not an unusual concept to a Yorkshireman. For example, last
week I quite happily shared my friend's fiver with him.

Just spotted in uk.rec.scuba: "I'm a student in a college class. I've been
assigned by my professor to ask all of you in this group where your favorite
place in the world is to scuba dive."

What's the point, Linds?

You've failed. Capital letter for 'I' *and* displaying knowledge of an
actual place (or so I assume). Sorry, you'll have to try harder :-)
