Andy noted thnx..that's Sunday?...do you have a revised ETA back at Ulverston that day?

Letter to the council required explaining how inconsiderate it was of them not to consult you first and the week after would have been far more thoughtful of them to your needs

All arrived safely, food, a few scoops and a chat. Day 1 with glorious sun as we set off from the Ulverston PI, roofs down of course. Obligatory pics of Ribble Valley Viaduct Followed by a great drive to the Wensleydale Ice Cream Parlour. Been loads of times with no issues, however...
