In reply to maria85:
Regarding the Lakes, and accordign to friends of friends I have in the area, the classics are to follow the big ridge lines like High Street, or to get up onto the Helvellyn plateau. That's where I hope to be sometime this season - just not this w/e!
In Wales if you dig throug the Snowdonia winter conditions threads, you'll see comments from a couple of people who've been up on the Carneddau (again a big, mainly grassy plateau).
Btw - I've replied to your email from last night,
