Special weekends

This weekend there's a walking festival in Coniston, very nice, but it has me puzzled.

Everything going past the house this morning in on two wheels. There are thousands of old motorbikes, hundereds of sweating cyclists with numbers on their lycra backs.

And very few walkers.

Has the publicity for the event been lacking ? Are all the walkers already striding over the fells ?

Just now an ambulance went wailing past, towards Torver, has a walker been run over by a vintage motorbike, or maybe a cyclist has run into a 1930's Vincent.

So whatever you've come to Coniston for this weekend, have a nice day.

Firstly

Welcome to more work for me. The Cam takes roughly three-quarters of an hour to post each day, but I wanted to keep you informed on things going on in and around my bit of lakeland, things that I think are important. This is it: Tone'sWeBlog.

Please don't expect too much at first, but in the coming weeks there will be little snippets which will hopefully keep you in touch, and amuse you.
