The school holidays have started again and it was nice to get a little bit of sunshine after the rain of the weekend. When I ask Connie where she wants to go, she always replies ‘Gummer’s How’ – so that’s how we ended up here today. A great choice, I must say!

In an odd turn of events, Casper is now the dog off the lead as Angus has given up answering any commands! I think he is a bit 'Mutt and Jeff'.

Plenty of people waiting for the steamer to arrive at Lakeside, looks like the steam train has just pulled in from Haverthwaite on the left.
