A frrosty start but it looks like it going to be a fantastic day, snow forecast for tomorrow but fingers crossed it misses us, I hate the snow, bring on the sunshine

Its a wintry feel to St Patricks day in Sawrey,

Denis got a text from our Rachel his grand daughter, she is coming for lunch today, he spent the day trying to decipher the message convinced it was Spanish "cu tomo" see you tomorrow!!!

Its been a busy old week with lots of the dreaded cleaning and decorating but we are on the right side now.

There is a move to make some changes to road markings and  signs etc in Sawrey as part of a GoLakes travel initiative, some of the proposals are a bit strange to say the least, the most bizarre  is a set of gates either end of the village with a mock cattle grid,( we dont have any mock cattle!!) Anyway click the link and have a look.

Good news the village shop is re-opening at Easter good luck to the new tenants 

I set off down to Ulverston after breakfast this morning  I  was listening to Radio 2 and Radio Cumbria broke in with some very very important  traffic and travel news and I quote, the sheep on the road in Far Sawrey at Cuckoo Brow Lane have now been gathered up!!!!

A stunning sunny day in the lakes we had not one but two!!! incognito hotel inspectors staying last night, ah well they have a job to do.

After we had the meeting with our guests we made the most f the day with a good walk, this picture is overlooking Pullwood Bay on Windermere.
Tomorrow the project is giving the lounge at Buckle Yeat its annual paint job.
