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 sawrey.......Near Sawrey was woken up before 8am today with the sound of a jack hammer digging up the newly re surfaced road! yes the road that was re surfaced only 2 days ago had men digging it up this morning to replace the man-hole covers or something! I stood there doing my finest hands on hips impression looking amazed! They just smiled, well they would, isnt it triple time on a sunday or something!! OUSTANDING!!!

The ambulance has just flown through the village en route to the ferry, seems to have been a few sirens throught the village this weekend.
As I type there are 6 people perched on the benches enjoying their ice creams.......very civilised way to spend a sunday afternoon after a nice walk!

Sold a sunday times with a sunday sport tucked away inside it this morning! Bless!

Sawrey over and out for now ;0)
