A warm sunny day, the only downside shopping, but to be fair a haircut each and an eye test for Helen.
We took Matthews car to the garage as we went to Kendal, mot and service, for his arrival home in a couple of weeks.
On the way in we hit heavy traffic it turned out that there was a lorry on fire on the M6 and all the motorway traffic had to go through Kendal and on the bypass, chaos !
We called in at the Tower for a drink when we got back, the new regime seem to be doing well and we get lots of good feedback from our guests.
