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 Afternoon from Far Sawrey, the rain that has poured down this last few days has finally stopped for a while, the road between Near Sawrey and Hawkshead has had several places where caution was required to pass...

The newspapers are today dominated with stories of terrorists who have tried to blow up cars and airports, its all very worrying.

Several peoperties in the village have not had power this weekend, would not be suprised if the rain had not washed away the power cables!
The wet spell has however made the gardens in the village have a bit of a growing spurt, they all look like very english country gardens! lovely!!!

One of our customers Yvette Pavelyn is doing her bit to spread the word of our shop on her rounds doing her "lifes little helpers" job. She keep mentioning our shop to her customers and they keep coming in and becoming customers here....THANKYOU SO SO SO MUCH YVETTE, YOUR A STAR!
