Jock in Crummockwater



Well the answer to the last posts piccie question was Jock; and to prove it here is the next shot of him in the water. After very dodgy beginnings: as a pup he would walk around puddles for instance, he became a great water lover! He also enjoyed camping after he realised that he was going to be allowed into the tent at night.

So on the subject of camping, Pete is busy organising the camping trip for the 9th and 10th of May and he should be contacting everyone concerned very soon with more details. The venue for the overnight stay has been decided and it is Wasdale opposite the Wasdale Head Hotel. The last time we stayed there a cow decided to moo at its mate across the road for a couple of hours, and I wondered if we were going to get any sleep. Anyway, we went into the public bar and after an hour emerged into a lovely quiet still night as the cows had gone to bed, so we had a good sleep after all.
