Rain, hail, wind and a little sunshine, we have had the lot this weekend.
We had a couple of guests who arrived on Saturday, they were using that wonderful tool sat-nav, the only trouble is it got them to the ferry, the ferry was off so it guided them round the lake and when they reached Far Sawrey it said "you have reached your destination" they then resorted to plan B use the mobile phone to ring us up asking how to find us!!
Technology is great it makes everything so much easier how did we manage without it!!
