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"

Greetings from the village of the wet, yes its raining again! its not even that "fine rain that soaks you through" its big big rain drops and is showing no sign of going back to where it came from....
The long awaited new drinks fridge arrived this week and despite its seeming huge at first we are getting used to it and its nice to have a much larger soft drinks range (16new lines!)
The other picture is of a nappy cake that a customer from the village made for our milkman kevin who's wife gave birth to a little girl on wednesday, despite being a week late she arrived naturally and I am assured mother and baby are both well....the nappy cake is awesome and is made with some 90 nappies! and as you can see looks absolutely fabulous!
Michael heather the dotty dog and I popped accross the pass to the la'al ratty steam train at ravensglass yesterday and had a lovely day, we ended it with a paddle at the beach at St Bees...
Well folks thats about all for now better go learn the new drinks prices :0)
