It was a large site with very good facilities including an excellent shop and showers but I felt that the neighbours were too close and I didn't really like the fact that I had no choice over which way I faced...I like to sit so that I can watch the sun set, but it was one of the rules that I had to put my back to the wall. Still, the site was handy for them to walk into Ambleside.
Before we set off, he went through his checklist again and this time remembered to top up my water tank...Hooray. When we got to the site, however, it was dark and, when he hooked me up to the mains, nowt happened. He left it that night but, by the time Him & Her got back from their walk the following day, it had sorted itself out...very odd....but it might have had something to do with the bloke that came round and fiddled with the supply box when they were out!!!
Mind, he's not very quick at getting used to my ways...he can't seem to tell when my grey waste pipe is open or closed....
Him & Her slept upstairs again, but boy did they have a struggle getting down the ladder in the morning ;-), still, they cooked up a lovely breakfast, bless their little cotton socks.
Speaking of cotton socks, they both put on two pair, some boots and then left me alone all day while they went off for a walk - what is it with this walking thing they do? - Apparently they went into Ambleside and then followed a path across the fells to Lily Tarn,
which you can see in this picture. They rabbitted on and on about what a magical place it is and how they will definitley be back...along as they find me a better place to snooze, I'll be fine with that.They also had tea out, the lazy so-and-sos, at a place called Lucy4 in Ambleside...best bistro in the Lakes they agreed when they came back a little worse for wear late that night.
Sunday morning it was a quick drive to Braithwaite to buy a sit-up'n'beg bike for their daughter, baldy biscuit, before setting off back home across the A66 - only been on it twice and, whilst the scenery around it is fantastic, it can be a bit busy for me at times.
