It's a week into March and winter has arrived, a covering of snow and then a cold rainy day. A walk was out of the question, the only high point was chatting to Matthew via MSN.
Only one couple in today, again no ferry so the village is pretty much deserted. Off to Kendal in the morning after breakfast.
