The repairs are all finished now, scaffolding just about to be removed. Old houses are lovely but they never seem to be finished, there’s always a little something else that needs fixing. However Home Farm was built in the nineteenth century and its still standing so I’m sure it will be there long after I’m gone.

We are looking forward to getting back to normality and welcoming guests again. Let’s hope the weather is kind. Anyone who comes to the Lakes knows that part of the fun is the weather. You can never be sure what each day will produce.
