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 blue sky morning from Sawrey, I had to take a picture of the blue sky emerging just to prove to myself tomorrow we did get some restbite fromt he rain today!!!
Its lovely to come into work and not get wet and not make paper mache things with the newspapers....
Today is definately the start of the school holidays, we sold 5 fishing rods before 10am! Amazing!
It is quite interesting how everyone differently describes the sticky bath buns, some people call them chorley cakes!?! Some people call them fruit barms and today someone called them large cherry buns! At least I think they did ;0) Whatever you want to call them these bath buns taste as scrummy as they always have
The Peter Rabbit Gifts are attracting some positive attention and the shops first sale of the day was a pack of Peter Rabbit Juggling Balls! Wonder if that was to put on a show whilst serving breakfast :-)
Update on the dog, now that michael and heather are in residence with me and giving him lots of attention he seems much happier, although a quick phone call home this moring was cut short by them both trying to get something out of his mouth, puppies just love to chew!!!
Well thats about all for now folks, off to practice some juggling :0)
