Good Morning from Sawrey Stores... its a clear but very cold blue sky morning here... I think the car ferry is off as the road is exceptionally quiet today....

The village is like a scene out of 101 dalmations, there are dogs everywhere, one of them is on heat and they are all running around trying to find her!

Yesterday afternoon a couple of customers bought some of the "local xmas gifts" I have wrapped up for xmas and they donated them to the Village Hall Christmas Bingo Box :0)

A customer came in today and asked if we sold "Almond Milk"??? they looked at me quite strange when I said that I have never heard of it!?! is it just me?!? Oh well!

There is a lovely article in this months Cumbria Life which is out today, its a feature on the barber from Ambleside who tragically died at the roadside near Rydal, he has been a Barber for over 65years and was quite a character in Ambleside. I remember coming to the lakes many years ago and seeing him stood outside his shop in his white coat. Lakeland villages are full of characters who make communities all the more special and I am sure he will be sadly missed in Ambleside

Thats about all for now follks, Happy friday, blog back on monday :0)
