It's supposed to be flaming June!! but at least it's not as bad as forecast, we had a good walk last night down the dub and through to Far Sawrey before turning back into village.
As mentioned in the national press we do have a lot of rabbits about and the ones up near Hill Top are getting used to people taking pictures.
