Weather turned! VERY strong wind, rain, substantially colder. Tackled Fleetwith 'the back way' rather than up the NW ridge. Managed to tick-off Brandreth and Grey Knotts, but no views to speak off with mist. Back down to Honister Pass and along to Seatoller for bus back to Keswick. Wainwright tally going into 2020 is now 103.
