Wetherby Blues: Sunday, July 21st

We should have a great many fewer disputes in the world if words were taken for what they are, the signs of our ideas, and not for things themselves. -John Locke, philosopher (1632-1704)

Hi Coriandre! Did I already send these to you? Love, Patrizzio!

Please send take-out for four, with appropriate wines, care of The Grange, Country House, Manor Brow, Keswick, Cumbria, CA12 4BA, UK. Weather as gorgeous as Sonoma/Napa so we are having a wonderful time,  Brief stroll through Grasmere on way to our home for next two nights, with our most hospitable tour guides, Chris and Jim. Last time I was in the Lake District was in April, 1970, Cora Lee never. Fondestos to the retiring cactus from Mme. Coriande. Cheers, Patrizzio The Daffodil Man!

Drove to Lake District via Hawes, railway museum; stopped for java/scones; Sedbergh for books, school, bank, Rowntrees Fruit Gums; Windemere past Wordsworth's historic home Rydal Mount House in Ambleside and then on to Grasmere to see Reads Book Store, (Irene 1970, Margaret and Dan Hughes), and Wordsworth family plot in St Oswald's Church. Then on to check-in at The Grange in Keswick. Walk into town to buy SB and then back for a shower and change. Drive to pub, Horse & Farrier:

Jennings Bitter 3.5% ABV
A distinctively darker, medium strength bitter with a malty, nutty, yet mellow taste.
A very drinkable strength with a really more'ish taste, making it an ideal session beer for those seeking something distinctive.

Hi mom/dad,

Looks like the trip is going well and you two are enjoying yourselves!!

Things are going well here, my first event, AL's 25th anniversary party was a great success last Thursday and so am happy that it went well.

Weather has been really quite amazing but hot at the loft, poor Mags is roasting. She is doing ok, has been doing some sad howling lately but only one hair ball and eating like crazy. 4-5 times a day but really wants to get outside. I have been letting her go in the hall but I always go with as I don't want her to meet any of the neighbor dogs.

She is defiantly depressed though. If she makes it, which I think she will she will be very happy to go back to the island inn.

Love you both, hope you enjoyed your birthday nana. And yes Krissy and I did have fun the other night, we were celebrating her birthday but of course toasted to you!!

Goodnight from mags and I. xxxx

Good Morning Christine and Jim, et al!

Thanks for the wonderful, wonderful day yesterday and the marvellous meal last night! Thought I'd send along a few snaps. See you at our table for breakfast shortly. Cheers, Patrizzio!
