Good Afternoon from Far Sawrey, a dry day so far and there are a few walkers around and about. One walker came into the shop and said to mum yesterday, I heard you on radio 4 yesterday, much to mums shock an interview she had recorded about rugs on Womans Hour some time ago was broadcast this week, pasted the link below

We are back to ordering a full tray of Bath Buns and surprise surprsie they have all sold out.
It was a rollover on the bonus ball this week and a lady called Mary who lives in the village has won it, she was thrilled!

What I failed to mention on fridays blog was a great article in the local paper about one of Sawreys residents. Alex Brodie who owns the Hawkshead brewery had an article published about his brewery and the beer festival that he is hosting this weekend. His beer hall looks a great venue and we wish him every success.

I also feel I should put on the blog some of the many compliments that other businesses in the village get from custmers who come in here and tell us all about the service etc they have received. This past few weeks we have had several people comment on the marvellous food they have had at the Sawrey Hotel. The hotel is a family run business and serves bar meals at lunch time and dinner at night. Well done Sawrey Hotel you get Sawrey Stores Gold Star award for making visitors happy bunnies this week

I came into the shop today to find the kitchen area is no more! Sawrey's very own "men that can" Simon and Alan had been yesterday and removed all traces of it ready for the new craft area! THANKYOU SO MUCH TO YOU BOTH!!!

I have to have a case conference with the council tomorrow regarding my case, so as usual I am feeling acutely anxious and have not slept well, not much longer to go now in respect of this matter I hope. I find it so very hard talking to representitives of the organisation that has detrimented me so much....

Thats about all for now folks, nearly time to pack up and potter home :-)
