Near Sawrey was once home to the children's writer Beatrix Potter about whom the movie Miss Potter is all about. Hill Top Farm where she wrote many of her stories is a museum and is open to the public.

No prizes for guessing where I have been today, down the M6 to pick up Denis & Margaret
on their return from Spain, the flight was on time but they had a slight delay in reclaiming baggage.
While waiting I listened to the Merseyside derby on the radio, a 3-1 win for the red half of the city.
We got an email from Matthew and Sarah this morning, they are in Nazco which is in the Southern Peru, they plan to head inland soon into the mountains ready for the trekking part of the journey.
We are off out for a drink at the Tower later, better not be to late in though the clocks go forward tonight so an hour less in bed.
