What a weekend!

At last the weather has turned and we had a lovely warm weekend. We made full use of it and spent Saturday afternoon sailing on Windermere.

Well, as Captain "Birdseye" Mike observed it was more of a float than a sail as there was no wind, but there aren't many more beautiful places to float than halfway down Windermere!

A couple of pints at The Mortal Man and then home for a barbecue to round off a lovely day.






Next morning we took TT to Windermere to do some skateboarding at the skate park and then had a picnic down by Windermere and went kayaking.

I'm not sure about those ripples on the water now!



















Mid afternoon the weather turned quite dramatically and we drove home through an amazing thunderstorm with forked lightning everywhere and rolling crashes of thunder right on top of us.

What a great way to forget work for 2 days!
