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 Sawrey, its raining oranges and lemons, only kidding, but its raining once again! it does not seem to have stopped for a few days, no strawberry selling this monday!

Hawkshead school is linked with a school in Ghana and the african school have come over to visit this week, the teachers and one of the students are being hosted in this village. The weather is somewhat different to Ghana today!

How ironic, Radio 2 are playing "I can see clearly now the rain has gone" :0) (I wish it would!)

On saturday I drove past a police car just up the road from the shop, there was a man looking fairly bruised and battered, there was no car, not sure what had happened to him, he was standing tho so hopefully it was not too serious and the villages zero crime rate will remain in tact ;0)

Thats about all for now folks, I cannot get that blooming song out of my head!
