Sunny Sawrey
Another fantastic sunny sunny day in Sawrey, plenty of people in the village today and quite a few calling in for teas. Denis is a bit down tonight after watching Preston North End only draw after taking the lead against Derby. After tea we just had walk up the village and the bats are out and feeding outside Buckle Yeat.
