The museum is on the site of their factory but I’m not sure if they are still made in the town.
Made in Workington. I assume that Keswick being in a National Park caused problems - planning, traffic congestion etc. but that's just a guess.
Just wasn’t 2B I guess

I had hoped to be able to make a post about the wide ranging views across the valley from todays walk.

However the weather means this is the only post you’re getting.

Sorry, I realised I was hedging my bets slightly; that was beyond the pale.

I was just kidding, of course, sometimes on the internet the intent of a joke can be mist.

Bradgate Park in Leicestershire, the home of Lady Jane Grey, nine days queen.

A distant view of the ruins, and a closer one. It's a deer park now, mainly roe deer.

It was Monday 3 March at about 4:30pm, certainly the quietest I have ever seen Keswick. Fortunately the fish and chips at a rather quiet Old Keswickian were as good as always. :)

David, a beach south of Lowestoft? Perhaps Kessingland, or thereabouts. :)

What a difference 7 years make. Kessingland beach in February 2018…
