He can collect his daughter at noon. Finally, a contact order allowing him a whole week with her.

He is scared out of his mind.

He arrives in the area deliberately early. A walk first, to settle the nerves. Something to occupy the morning. Skiddaw via White Hause to lift the respiration rate and expend the nervous energy that threatens to undo him when he has to face them. Daughter, mother and the new man.

From White Hause he can see his goal, and wonders if he will make it.

He can also see Great Cockup, and it seems appropriate.

he can also see...what? (is that his nickname for the shmuck who stole his wife from him?)

a nice look at Ryan's life. kudos.

:D
I'm sure you know of course that Great Cockup is actually the name of a hill in the Lake District. And of course a cock up is slang for doing something badly, making a mess of something, something gone wrong.
LOL, poor Greg. He's a good chap.

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

didn't know that about the hill's name. did know it was slang for something going badly - hence why he calls the cuckolder that.

It's nice to see Ryan insecure for a change and the last line is brilliant!
