Today I didn't go and see the meercats

Day two of the holiday. Wedding is in about an hour, but I've nothing to do until then. Went for a little walk this morning, a couple of miles up the road to Ambleside. And back. Had a cup of tea outside a nice little cafe there, which was my seventh of the morning (!).

It's a reasonably nice weather day. Bit cloudy, but warm enough. Three things I will not be doing this evening:
1. Cake Diving
2. Swearing at motorists.
3. Laughing at the big wooden squirrel.

And there is a huge monkey puzzle tree outside the hotel. Apparently (according to Jenny), there is the largest such tree in Europe somewhere near here. It may or may not be the one outside. It's not easy to tell just by looking. Asking the tree "Hello Mr Tree. Are you the biggest tree of your kind in these parts?" will not tend to evoke an answer. Because trees can't talk.
