    OMG JayJay, a boat, what were they thinking!! It was raining when we did it. We've took the caravan over Hartside too http://www.visitcumbria.com/pen/hartside.htm entertaining ..... wasn't intentional, DP forgot what an iffy road it was.

    I can see Hartside from my house. It is closed right now but I saw a few sets of head lights going over last night, sneaking past the road closed signs.

    L-l massive hugs love, I agree with valli's suggestion. I hope things improve for you soon

    Toots I have finished all four days now:):)

  • 3tabbycats hope you have a great time - whats your costume?

    ....I made a leopard all in one suit thing complete with a hood, ears & tail out of 2 leopard print fleecy blankets! Bit ambitious for my first attempt at making anything with my sewing machine but so long as it lasts a few hours tonight then I'm happy!
