( I need one of those Fortitude parkas......now that has been a strange TV programme...FORTITUDE....and we thought WE were mad!!). Frankie looks as though he's out for a walk with his grandparents......
.....which he was, earlier in the week, when we met up with another branch of the Hillman family, for morning tea at Abbey Mill Café...where else!
We did manage to make it over to the Dock Museum, just as that weekend fog was lifting...was it Wednesday......and Walney was just beginning to re appear after being fog bound for most of the holiday weekend!
We did spot a cormorant, flying right in front of us!
Talking of fortitude, we popped in to the Hawcoat Sports and Social Club's Spring Craft Fair today....so good to read that the club's future has been secured by a group of quiet but hard working volunteers...it wouldn't be Hawcoat without that club...make sure you keep using it and supporting events!
We used it for our silver wedding anniversary party a few years ago, and it was a really good venue! We couldn't resist an evening trip to How Tun Woods earlier in the week, again on the day that the fog finally lifted.....some stunning photography ensued (but not from me...I just hold the lens caps!).
Superb...if it's a clear evening, it's well worth a walk up there...what an atmospheric place!
The beck is really high down at Furness Abbey at the moment....great for ducks, but making the fields rather sloppy for sheep just about to drop their lambs....
...but a few nice precursors of early summer!! Back to school and work tomorrow...I'm looking forward to it as always.......Frankie is not!!!!
