      This book is dedicated to the memory of our beloved lab-spaniel, Teal, who walked the entire route at its last revision, vaulted every stile, and, being a wannabe trout, sampled every stream and river until finally she could swim with the ducks and swans in Lake Windermere. Sadly, Teal is no longer with us, but her memory lives on.
