Today we drove to Kirkby Stephen a market town in Cumbria.
We’d been here a few times before and both of us liked it. Our initial thoughts today were that it had changed a fair bit since we were last there. Nothing major, but a few of the shops we remembered weren’t there any more and a few of the pubs and hotels looked as if they had changed hands. Well, you have to remember that nothing lasts forever.
We had coffee and a bite to eat in the town, then went for a walk round the cricket pitch and up on to the mound behind it where you get a great view all round.
A bit of shopping in the Coop and then back to the house.
PoD was a straggly line of wild geranium flowers back at the house.
Memories:
- Rosa persica. Yellow rose with dark red centre
- Climbing the hill behind the cricket pitch
- Sighting the Nine Standards from the top of the hill
- Neil’s Daal with Flatbread
- Roadworks on the Main Street causing confusion
Tomorrow is unplanned as yet. Maybe back to Kendal weather permitting.
