The CLR James book that we refer to is called Beyond A Boundary - recently reprinted by Vintage. We watched a great documentary called Race and Pace covering some of the issues we talk about - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vmAhKkfhNs&t=315s We want to record massive thanks to club chairman Andy Pettinger and to captain and wicketkeeper Michael Bradley of Nelson Cricket Club. They were very generous with their time and knowledge. We sent a very pleasant afternoon in the sun watching the cricket, we are just sorry that Nelson did not win that day. Any comments or feedback gratefully received at grimupnorththepodcast@gmail.com

With thanks toJoanna Walpole of the Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena – ASSAP and Dr Sam George Associate Professor in Research at the University of Hertfordshire and convenor of the Open Graves, Open Minds research project for their generosity of spirit and their time. The read quote is from Bram Stoker's Dracula with thanks to Tom Scott for reading it.

We have now established the tradition of beginning each series with a walking episode. The first was around the city of Sheffield and our second is around Grasmere in the Lake District. Made famous by the Lakeland poets and especially William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy who lived in Dove Cottage, Grasmere town sits next to the lake of the same name. We began at the cottage and the wonderful museum dedicated to the Wordsworths and then walked right around the lake. We encountered other walkers and then finished off in the Churchyard where the Wordsworth's are buried. We stayed the night in the wonderful Traveler's Rest on the edge of the town. The next morning we headed up towards Easdale and the path up to the Tarn looking over Sour Milk Gill. Thanks to all the people we encountered on the walk for their time and obvious love of the Lakes. We would recommend Dorothy Wordsworth's Grasmere Journal, any version of the Prelude by William Wordsworth and Jonathan Bates excellent biography Radical Wordsworth.
