It has been raining heavily in Ulverston. Not raining now, but we might expect a couple of more showers. Watch out for localised flooding, especially on the country lanes!
I hope you have all had a good weekend.
I only worked till midday on Saturday, then did my bit of shopping and enjoyed listening to the Junior Band in the Market Place fr a while. The was some good racing on yv and I kept track of Cartmel Races too. Out in the evening around town. A lovely atmosphere and lots of flk wee out.
Sunday dawned and following my Kipper Breakfast I did a few huskeeping chores whilst listenng to solme good music on the radio, I went for a ride out on teh trike in teh afternoon, jut down to Dragley Beck, the Rope Walk, cana l Foot adn back up teh Canal Tow Path. nice ride and there were lots of folk out walking and getting some fresh air. I met Helen and David in teh Wine Bar as there was some live msic on and teh place was packed! Then to the Farmers for Cocktails. Always nice. Then home again for Tony Blackburn's Golden Hour.
As I had finished Line of Duty I stared watching Last Tango in Halifax. Fabulous!

It is dry at present in Uverston but some heavy rain is imminent according to the Met Office. There is a possible chance of a thunderstorm, too.
Some old friends are visiting Ulverston, and they kindly called in to see me. It was a pleasure, and a very nice surprise, to see them again. Especially as they are both looking so fit and well.
I finished catching up on Line of Duty last evening. What a good series that was! I need to search for another good series to get my teeth into. Any suggestions?
It is the Festival of Transport this weekend in Barrow, as well as Cartmel Races if you fancy a little bet on a horses?
I hope you all enjoy, whatever you are doing, a nice weekend.

A nice morning here in Ulverston. Dry and sunny, though a decline is forecast of rain, sometimes heavy, even thunderstorms are possible, in the next couple of days.
I had a nice day, yesterday, and I hope you all did, too. I had a friendly bowls match after work, and I won! 21-15!!!
It's the last day at school for the children. so there will be lots of celebrations, no doubt.
The Government are going to try and introduce a change in the election rules by reducing the voting age to 16/17. There is doubt to be a lot of discussion on such a subject. t that age they cannot vote or buy a pint of beer. What do you think?
Stay Safe! Stay Alert! Stay Calm! BE NICE TO ONE ANOTHER AND SHOW COMPASSION!
