And the lakes, sometimes you can get a pitch in the langdale NT campsite. And last week I even managed to find a parking space at storey arms in the Brecon Beacons (the brecons as some idiots like to call it).

I think you are better than this.
We need to increase participation in the outdoors.
You need to reach out to the inner cities, to the minority groups.
We need more people in the outdoors.
There are two huge threats in the developed world.
1. Obesity.
2. Our use of the environment.
Encouraging people to be outside, even if Snowdon, helps combat these 2 issues.
Snowdon can cope.
