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 far Sawrey, its a tad overcast, but fingers crossed the rain hold off until after the Rose Queen procession in Hawkshead. Today is the birthday of a good friend of mine so HAPPY BIRTHDAY Andy...

Look at the picture above! How fab is that for a eco friendly mode of transport! never seen anything quite like it, it zips up the lane and turns on a sixpence, you can even attach a trailer I believe! Our customer loves it! I WANT ONE! It would be fabulous for doing Sawrey Stores deliveries! Big hazard triangle attached to my behind and I would be off! ;-)

The camp sites were quite quiet today, there were a few large expedition groups there, they come equipped with everything, but they could not resist the chocolate brownies!

Thats about all for now folks! Segway away!
