Titbits.

Haven’t mentioned Caroline’s sense of direction lately, because she has been ‘up to scratch’ until going to Latrigg.

Go around the roundabout at Crosthwaite and take the first right.” I said

” I Know , shut up ” was the reply “.

So ! as we preceded up the east shore of Bassenthwaite , passing a few trailers , she suddenly remarked ” I am going the wrong way, aren’t I”

Well” you told me to shut up!.

The pups did it again at Eskdale – Crossed the road – jumped the wall – and landed squarely on the Hens !

Phil Graham lost his pup at Tallentire on Sunday – where is it ? in the boot of Dickie’s car going backwards and forwards from the last road to the ‘Redmain crossing’

Biggest cheer of the week – Foxparke Mamma Mary  finishing last at Eskdale Show. Nicola was quoted as saying there should be rosettes for the last to finish .Answer as quick as a flash .” Nicola , you haven’t got a room big enough to house them. ”

Took my grandson to Eskdale and on the last road we were whistling and shouting at the sheep to keep them back from the open gate. The hounds came and he started to shout to keep them back as well but they just kept coming.

It was rather wet at Dearham , so wet ,in fact that the canaries were out – alias the Reids.
