We got an e-mail today from Kathy from Indiana, she stayed with us a year ago and is a regular blog reader and her blog link is on the right of this page. It was good to hear from her.
Camilla the Duchess of Cornwall was in the county today, she was in Barrow in Furness naming a new submarine, Astute.
We had a good walk tonight through the woods and back into Sawrey
