Four of our more senior #Rotary members were manning the soup Stall today at #Kendal Farmers Market. A Stall between lovely daffodils and superb chocolate brownies. A great day was had by all.

Good morning from a sun soaked #Kendal what a joy to have blue skies on bluesky. We are at the farmers market in town today selling hot soup, Thai sweet potato, yummy!!! Oh and happy to talk all things #Rotary

I see this as good news. But I bet the law of unintended consequences will apply. It will be interest to see the surveys of results in 20 years time.

A reminder to book in, tune in and listen in to my chat with @walklistencreate.org about my forthcoming book, The Postal Paths (due out April 24). (And posties can join for free!)... walklistencreate.org/walkingevent...

This afternoon, my walk felt like an early Spring day—gentle sunshine, twittering birds, and shy crocus basking in the sunlight. But I’m not fooled! No doubt Winter will strike again before Easter 😉 😊 @lakedistrict.bsky.social @photohour.bsky.social @showcasecumbria.bsky.social

Beavers aren't called 'ecosystem engineers' for nothing. They're ecological powerhouses, transforming landscapes into highly biodiverse, fireproof, river-filtering, flood preventing, carbon sequestering, wonderlands. They're one of the best ways to unleash the power of nature for good.

I feel I should start naming some of the postal paths and locations in my forthcoming book, The Postal Paths. I'll start with Dent (east Cumbria) where the postman's path cuts through everyone's back gardens! A shortcut from the station to the village saving him much time (it is a public footpath).

I am hoping to find out more about this postman. He's almost certainly 'Len Post' aka Len Parrington who walked the Dent route in Cumbria until 1909. The postbox still exists.
