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, its still dry and its quite warm today, dare I say it but the forecast is looking good for the bank holiday weekend! The above animal picture is of Tess, she belongs to Joyce one of our customers and blog readers from Carlisle..
The other picture is of the new Sawrey Postcards which we are selling here in the shop, customers love them and we have waited a very long time for someone to print some postcards of this beautiful village
The police seem to be cruising around the villages today, I am however not suprised as customers are reporting that cars are parked all over the road including on the bend between the two Sawrey's
The new fishmonger called this morning, he brings fresh fish from fleetwood and stops outside the shop selling to customers, he then goes door to door in the village, its absolutely lovely fish
Its delivery day here today, first came the meat, then came the ice cream, then came the biscuits and just arriving are the batteries..phew
Thats about all for now, happy tuesday :0)
