Update

I was feeling better by Saturday. It was a nice day, so Matt suggested a walk over in Crummack Dale to explore the bits we found last time. I was a little worried as the walk was around 7 miles - but I was pleasantly surprised at how I was able to deal with the exercise and the walk itself. It was so peaceful, scenic, unspoilt that it lifted the soul and I felt even better after it. When we got back, Tom had to do homework - my my he is getting a lot of homework already - with a good 7-10 pieces a week. I'm not sure I had that amount to start with?! 

Sunday - we met up with Katie and co at Hest Bank and we showed them the short walk between The Shore Cafe and Archers Cafe. It was a gloriously lovely day. Bright blue skies, and hot. We were all wearing the wrong clothes. Had a ice cream at Archers and walked back again. It wasn’t a long session, but we were all happy to be out in the sunshine and socialising - how much longer will we be able to do this? Covid is coming….this week Year 10 was sent home. One of Tom’s form, Isaac's brother has picked up the virus - they live in Ingleton, 3 boys and Mum alone. They are isolating at home. I went and left them a care package. Can’t be fun stuck in a house together for so long. On Saturday Tom and Matt went on a Diesel and Ale Day on the Keighly and Worth Valley Railway. They had a good day, whilst I stayed at home and cleaned the house. We all seem to be sneezing and coughing a lot so I thought a thorough clean of the house would be a good idea (it hasn’t made any difference to the sneezes and coughs but the house is nicer as a result). 

On Sunday we drove to Hornby and did a walk alongside the river Lune. All very lovely except we encountered a field full of huge cows and ended up leg it over a fence and walk alongside a steep embankment to avoid them.
