BusyLizzie
Elderly late starter. Not that keen on leading but will occasionally lead Mods and Diffs; will second up to HS on a good day but can struggle seconding Severe. I enjoy long days outdoors, mountains best of all. I am married with two grown-up children. Lizzie Cooke (on FB as Lizzie Coppin).Location
