Yesterday was an awful day weather wise then last night it cleared and we had a good walk up to the tarns, today the reverse, it was sunny this morning and the rain set in at about 3pm.
Hill Top is very very busy this week and it shows no sign of slowing down, they have been selling out of tickets at about 1.30pm today there was even a queue to have a picture taken with Mr McGregor on the bench outside Buckle Yeat.
