We got back late from Kendal yesterday after shopping for supplies.
We also went round by Lucys garden centre in Grange to pick up some bedding plants for home.
It has been a wet miserable day, although it did ease for a short while allowing me to get home and get in the bedding plants. This afternoon when the weather set in again I caught up with Test match for an hour.
We have a couple of rooms free tonight but fill up tomorrow and we are in for a busy week.
Len and Sheila from Derby checked in yesterday, they brought six watercolours that Sheila has painted, we put them in the dining room with a price ticket on them and try to sell them on her behalf. She has done one of The Tower Bank Arms and one of Hill Top, they should sell quickly.
