Special day yesterday, celebrating the #PennineWay 60th. I sang about my dad, the dalesman hefted to the hillsides. Great to see how the "Long Green Trail" continues to "inspire and invigorate". @yorkshiredales.org.uk @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @anitasethi.bsky.social @nationaltrailsuk.bsky.social

The Pennine Way is 60 years old & we celebrated this iconic & ground-breaking trail at a special event in the Yorkshire Dales today - in words, music & art. Still an inspiration after all these years! @yorkshiredales.org.uk @nationaltrailsuk.bsky.social @ramblers.org.uk @campaignerkate.bsky.social

It was good to chat to BBC York with Dad about our song, Making Memories on the Pennine Way www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

This is simply gorgeous. Thanks Ben's Dad for caring for our paths.

I made a song and video about where I grew up, on the Pennine Way. With a cameo from dad, who maintained the path for a living. It was quite emotional making it; I hope you like it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpvM... #yorkshiredales #pennineway #malhamdale #hiking #penyghent @yorksbylines.bsky.social
