The weather has calmed down a bit today. We did our walk again but the beck isn't quite so ferocious today.

It rained all night and we had torrential rain all day today. We decided to drive to Penrith to do some shopping - the roads out of Cowgill were really flooded so we came home via Kirkby Lonsdale. It's still raining!!!

It didn't stop raining all day today! Spoke to Mo this evening - lovely to catch up with her. She has been to Rome and her and Martyn have been to Northern Cyprus. Kate and Dennis are here - Kate gave me lots of apples so I've got them all cooked and some put away in the freezer.
