Hello from Sawrey (Miss Potter village)

Far Sawrey lies in rolling farmland and wooded hillsides above Lake Windermere. It is the area where the "Miss Potter" film is based upon. This is a blog from the village shop, which is not dis-similar to the Beatrix Potter Ginger and Pickles Shop here in the heart of the village where Beatrix Potter lived and wrote her world famous stories including "The Tale of Peter Rabbit"

Good morning from Sawrey, its a grey start to the day here today, there are not many people at the camp sites today....
News on the van front, the print work is being done as I type and hopefully the sticking ont he van will be done next week sometime, there was a bit of confusion, but its all sorted now.....
We took a delivery of groceries to a holiday cottage at Wray village, no one was there when we arrived, it took them 2 days to find the shady nook I left it in......Opppppzzz
The tassles have been put up over the door as the ram raiders keep trying to get in and steal the bird nuts, we have fed them all winter and I think they think that they are one of the family now!
Talk of the village today is of a story in the daily mail today, the Lefton family who live on Belle Isle on Lake windermere have have all been sent to prison for perjury! Despite been named last year as the 31st richest woman in britain, money has not bought them freedom, it seems that her son had been send some speeding fine documents through the post, his mother took delivery of them and under oath denied that she had ever received them, all of the family were jailed for 3months which was cut by the court of appeal yesterday to 6weeks.........Lake Winderemre or jail? I know which I would prefer :-)
Roger the builder has taken delivery of his giant mouli!!! I wonder what he is going to do with it??? I will keep you updated
