It's raining again! Which is a pity as the club its first BOWLING MATCH (Friendly) against Ulverston Cons this evening. So I hope the weather improves a little so the match can go ahead. All teh club memebers are very much looking forward to getting back to bowling!
I got stuck in the long takil-backs of traffic yesterday caused by the temporary traffic lights. from just about Booths roundabout right to the "narrows" at Greenodd, The traffic coming the other way was backed up as far as Nevby Bridge. Traffic hold- ups like that can be very frustrating at times. Especially if you are needing to be somewhere at a specific time. Especially for wagon drivers and bus services.
Nonetheless, it provided some time to admire the scenery which is getting greener day by day!
The pictures of teh bridge collapse in Baltimore are amazing. It appears teh container ship lost power and ploughed into one of ethe bridge support s and the whole bridge collapsed. The bridge had vehicles crossing at the time and there were some workmen doing work on the bridge and they all fell into the river. Dreadful.

A lovely sunny morning! Remaining a bit chilly and a splaxh of rain expected later, so get out now when it's so nice!.
Yesterday was such a contrast to the weekend weather!
It was good news fro Barrow when the Prime Minister announced a £200 million package fro the town and the wonderful contract for BAE to build nuclear submarines fro Australia. So it's all looking good for the district, don't you think?
The University Challenge programme was fantastic last night. I only managed to get 4!!!!
AFterwards there was a very revealing programme about Stlonehenge. Watch it on iPlayer!
