A fantasic forecast for the weekend and it is Grand National day tomorrow the greatest steeplechase in the world, for what its worth here are my tips for the big race, the first is "Dusty Carpet" never been beaten! and a good each way bet could be "Creosote" good over fences.

A walk up to Moss Eccles and then down into Far Sawrey to call into Sawrey Stores to pick up our bread order, great bread on offer at Sawrey Stores these days, it come from Grange Bakery and it is delicious.

The raised beds for the veg garden are taking shape and will be ready for planting early next week, we have planted some seeds in the greenhouse to give ourselves a head start.

A sunny spring day and off to Kendal for a couple of haircuts, thats one each not two for me.

Another full house at Buckle Yeat with a big turnout this morning, all incoming guests have arrive except one couple who have been on the phone and are stuck in traffic on the M6



Far Sawrey from Castle Wood.
