August 2016



How time flies when you’re having fun.  We are almost into September and still working our way through our “to do” list for this year.  As well as having our monthly  meeting we also had another “tulip" run on the 21st kindly organised, once again, by Roger and Sue.  Six cars met at Roa Island at the southern tip of the Furness Peninsula.  The weather was fair so with trips reset and tulip instructions at the ready we set off through the lanes and villages of Furness to Swarthmoor Hall.  Although we all arrived more or less at the same time we didn’t all take the same route !!!  Over coffee Roger assured us the next section would be a lot easier to follow, so off we went again. From Swarthmoor the route took us over Kirkby Moor, where we were rewarded with spectacular views over the Duddon Estuary and the Lakeland Fells, on to Broughton,  Lowick, along the east side of Coniston Water,  Hawkshead, Sawrey then finally arriving at The Farmers Arms for lunch.  A big thank you to Roger and Sue for organising a fabulous day out and we look forward to the next one.
