Buckle Yeat is situated in the village of Near Sawrey. The name Buckle Yeat is over 300 years old and it means fasten the gate.In years gone by the gate referred to would be the gate to the village. 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.

This is Miho a Japanese girl who left today, she mentioned yesterday to Derek and Vicky that it was her birthday and so this morning they had a birthday card for her.
She was a bit overcome with the kindness and shed a tear or two, she is in the UK for 2 years and I guess she will be missing her family. When she left she left a small gift which is the usual thing for Japanese people to do.
The Buckle Yeat garden is looking good.
Matthew has gone off to Sarah's today and tomorrow he heads off to Warwick for a meeting with his new employers to sort out roles and locations.
It has been a great day with lots of sunshine and we had a good walk through Castle Wood tonight before tea.
