By a tiny glass-like tarn mirroring a great buttress split with the black slash of a gully, something happened recently which could only be described as clandestine. Around a jumble of giant granite blocks a group approached, on a day so dreary it was more January than July. Between them they carried what transpired to be a body on a gate creaking under its weight.

They were reticent as they passed, closing ranks to screen their burden, although one did say that their party had met with a mishap further back where the path skirts a waterfall. At this point the recumbent figure gave a cry as the helpers negotiated a sudden dip in the ground.

Mentioning this to Borrowdale shepherd Stanley Jackson, he confirmed that sometimes folk come to grief on his lonely fell. Although his flock grazes on Glaramara, his farm is tucked away down the dale among the cottages at Rosthwaite. He was once returning from this wilderness with its gem tarns and outcrops when he met two mountain bikers near Black Pot, one of them spent. He suggested they put themselves on the trailer behind his quad bike and drove them back between Langstrath's enclosing mountain walls to the hotel.

The following week he received a CD and book duly autographed in the post. It's not every day, he says, you meet a celebrated rock musician whose friend is in extremis, and have a chance to help. And, yes, he knew very well who Sting was. He remembers "cracking on with him" as Cumbrian farmers do in expansive moments, though he refrained from saying in homage to the celebrity's lyrics, "I thought you went walking on the moon". "I reckon he'd have heard that said a hundred times afore," he said after sinking into his armchair with a mug of tea after yet another foray up Stake Pass and those muscle-draining slopes among the crags. "He was up here to get away from all that."
