After a warm and sunny spell we have a shower of rain this afternoon, in fact it was so warm yesterday we had a walk up to Moss Eccles and had a lovely refreshing swim.
We were staying in the village again this week. Entering Near Sawrey from Far Sawrey we all remarked on how beautiful Buckle Yeat looked. The flowers and hanging baskets were a wonderful blaze of colour. Guy
