Last week I had a welcome opportunity to play tourist for a few days! We visited Grasmere one day and Keswick the next. I received many treats! Read on to see the wonderful things I came home with.
 |
| First stop in Grasmere - a lovely cuppa at Mathildes and a browse in the Heaton Cooper Gallery |
 |
| Supercute globe necklace from The Red Gecko |
 |
| A visit to the Wordsworth graves and Daffodil Garden |
 |
| Beautiful books from Sam Read Bookseller and Grasmere Gather |
 |
| Next stop Keswick and an excellent seed bead haul in Oxfam! |
 |
| I love the Keswick Moot Hall! |
 |
| So glad to find this silver music ring at Soraya Vintage's market stall (I had one in the 90's!) |
 |
| So happy Magpie at Maysons is still there! It doesn't look any different than it did in the 90's! (Who misses the 90's?!!) |
 |
| Then the next day at Bowness Glebe market we saw the lovely Natasha from Soraya again and I got these beautiful earrings. |
Welcome to Lake Windermere - Wednesday, 10th September 2025!
 |
| Wet Lake District day! |
It is 13° with heavy rain and a gentle breeze from the south south west.
Sorry there was no 'Windermere Webcam Wednesday' yesterday! I was waiting all day for a new bracelet stand but the delivery never turned up. Well, EVRi do that to us sometimes don't they?! Anyway, my parcel turned up bright and early this morning and I was delighted with what was inside so all's well that ends well. Here's what it is:
 |
| Opening the parcel with my new knife! |
 |
| Well packaged! |
 |
| Exciting! |
 |
| I love it! |
 |
| Looks a bit like a rolling pin! |
 |
| Colourful flowers on a rainy Lake District day! |
Happy 1st September 2025 everyone 🤗 It's pouring down in the Lake District today, but the flowers and beads are bright and cheerful in the cosy Lakeland Loom studio!
