Early breakfast this morning so the guests could be in Cockermouth by 9:30. This meant I was able to take this shot of the sunrise.
We got a message late last night from Matthew, he is at this moment at Miami airport en-route to Quito.
Just the one room free tonight and all arrived before dark.
We had a visitation from my Godaughter Ellie who is 10years old and is saving hard for a holiday in Disneyland in June.
Big match tomorrow when Liverpool play at Old Trafford against Man Utd.

A lot cooler this morning after the mild grey weather we have been having lately.
Up early and up to Buckle Yeat to give the lounge it's annual lick of paint from top to bottom, we work as a team I do the ceilings and Helen does the walls, I don't mind painting but it is the clearing up afterwards that I hate, anyway all done now.
With the painting to do we never managed to get a walk today so no chance to take any pictures.
We have not heard from from Matthew in New York for a couple of days so he must be enjoying himself, he moves on to Quito in Ecuador tomorrow via Miami, what a life.
This weekend is very quiet again so not many in tonight but a few more for tomorrow night.

We had a good time at the Tower Bank Arms last night, it was a Burns night celebration to raise money for the Sawrey Institute, there was a good turn out and over £200 was raised. It was the last fund raising event that Phillip, Dorothy, and Andrew will be having, they have raised thousands of pounds over the years for local charities.





A group shot of Phil, Dorothy and Andrew along with the piper Mark and the token Scotsman Davy who comes down every year to address the haggis in the strongest Scottish accent I have ever heard.



This is Mark the piper and Phil carrying the haggis.



The commitee of the Sawrey Institute presented Dorothy with flowers to thank the family for all their help in raising funds for the Institute and Chairman Roger said a few words in appreciation.
