Near Sawrey

A couple of shots from our bedroom window yesterday, it's tough living here but someone has to do it.

One of the big news items in todays Westmorland Gazette is an incident that happened last week when the ferry killed a couple of cygnets just as it was coming in to dock, it has caused a bit of a stir and the RSPCA have got involved.

Hi Robert & Helen,

I like your photos, especially the misty ones near the bottom, and the unfortunate scene you have to look at from your bedroom window. The way the fog rests in the valleys opens some great photography opportunities, me thinks.

We thought you might like to have a link on Cumbric.net to your site. Cumbric.net is a new discussion board for communities and groups in Cumbria and beyond.

If you do, please let us know whether you’d like us to put up a link to your site, or whether you’d like to post one yourself (posting one yourself will of course give you the opportunity to introduce your site in whichever way you choose) – you can do so in the links section, here: http://cumbric.net/index.php?board=59.0

Or you can email us at cumbricnet@gmail.com

We would also welcome a link to Cumbric.net from your site. (Though either way, you are still welcome to post a link to your site on Cumbric.net)

General categories on the board include Recreation, Conservation, Arts and Culture, Business, Economy, Education, Cumbric language and Cumbrian dialect, 'Anything Goes!' and much more.

You may also set up a forum for your own town, village, or community group. The service will always remain free. There's a little more info on that here: http://cumbric.net/index.php?topic=22.0

We take our name ‘Cumbric’ from that of the language spoken in these parts before the fine language of English took over. You may or may not know, that whilst Cumbric is most closely associated with Cumbria, it were spoken all owert’ spot – reet acrosst’ north of England and southern Scotland and allsorts. And Cumbric.net welcomes peoples not only from Cumbria, but from further afield too.
