Spoke to Allan this morning on Skype - we're meeting up with him on Friday morning at the hotel. Spent the rest of the day doing last minute packing. The bag and shawl I made for Fiona's wedding.

Drove into Kendal and met up with Sheila and Janice and we went to Grasmere. Had a lovely relaxing day - had lunch and did a bit of shopping at the garden centre.

Picked up Anne at 10 and we drove to Lancaster for her hospital appointment. She wasn't very long so we had a quick visit to Standfast (and both managed to find some fabric to buy), then we had a stroll up through town.

Really warm and sunny today (until it rained this evening!). We spent most of today packing the campervan for our holiday.

Fraser and I went to Lytham St. Anne's today. We drove there in pouring rain but by the time we had lunch (fish and chips!) the sun had come out and it was warm and lovely. We strolled along the sea-front and enjoyed the view! Took this photo of the windmill on the sea-front - with all the starlings perched on top.

It's rained most of today - really heavy rain this evening. I finished my shawl today and one of Fraser's alpaca socks! Skyped Susan this evening - told her it was like winter up here and she told me it's really hot down there!!!

Allan called first thing this morning so good to catch up with him. Finished making my bag today - I'm pleased with it! Rained first thing but brightened up later. I need to start packing our clothes tomorrow as we're off next Thursday!!!
