Hi all, checking in from the Lakes here. Mountains appear and disappear several times a day as the rain comes and goes but we've been lucky enough to stay reasonably dry on walks and boat trips.
Dd has sulky friend to stay, who only cheers up when talking about or eating food, the more unhealthy the better (steak pie and chips with no vegetables or salad please).
In crepey news, I had to give up on Catbells: the middle-aged middle ear couldn't cope with the rocky scrambly bit and I got horrible vertigo .
Ddog hopped off the Derwentwater steamer today, onto the jetty and straight into the drink. I keep trying to tell people she's intelligent. Of course she couldn't get out. Dh hauled her out by the scruff of the neck and she wagged her tail politely, as though nothing had happened, then shook herself all over me.
Have had a quick catch-up. Sympathies to those having hard times - will be back in touch soon.
