A couple of picnic benches outside Sawrey Institute, take a break from walking and have your picnic in comfort then pop a donation in the honesty box, good idea every little helps.

Its a busy day in the village today, the kids are all off school now so the visitor numbers should increase.
the weather forecast was not to clever but at the moment it is a lovely day, long may it continue

St Swithins day today and at least its dry, well only just, we had a nice walk yesterday in the sunshine up to Moss Eccles then back down into Far Sawrey and along the footpath into Near Sawrey.
A busy turnout this morning and then a couple of quite days before we fill up on Tuesday

Fully booked this weekend and waiting for the last 3 rooms to arrive, hopefully no major traffic issues on the motorways tonight.
We have have a couple of dry and partially sunny days and although the next week is not a fantastic scorching summer forecast the people who say they know are predicting a bit more seasonal weather is on the way.
Had a nice night out last night with Tony and Lorna from Woking who are staying in the village.
