The Inevitable Friars Crag, and Home

Tuesday, 22nd March 2016

The inevitable walk to Friars Crag, no visit to Keswick is complete, without this ritual. It is supposedly one of the most photographed spots in the Lake District, but, you will be pleased to hear, I resisted the temptation to take any photographs.

Our plan for lunch is to visit an Indian Restaurant we visited some years ago, but, we are thwarted when we find the premises is now a travel agents!

We take a very poor second best and have a "Jennings Special", in one of the pubs around the market square, to be fair, it was quite good.

Why does almost everyone who visits Keswick have to bring at least one dog with them? You cannot get moved for the things (dogs, or, as brother John would have it, "shit machines"). Kathleen is put out, when one particular animal, which, for some unimaginable reason she found appealing, insisted on turning it's gaze to me, instead of her. Just goes to show, they (dogs) are not that intelligent if it failed to detect I cannot stand the things.
