This is scary. The Lakes are going to be full of hundreds of little pip-smoking folk, all complaining about how it were so much better in t' old days and now modern life is spoiling everything and eeh aww there are cars everywhere and all the peasants used to be so accommodating to us penniless wanderers (but hang on while I make a few bob selling squillions of books, and a few videos with my mate out of Gardeners' Question Time).
Check out the WWS message-board for plaintive e-mails from loads of elderly Americans who will be invading en masse to walk Ye Famous Coaste to Coaste Walk next summer and dig up a few rellys along the way.
