Busy week, lots of visitors and lovely sunny Autumn (nearly) weather. The Tour of Britain cycle race passed very close to the cottages on Monday – Bolton-by-Bowland, Gisburn, Slaidburn and Forest of Bowland. Wonderful views of surrounding hills and dales. Not quite in Yorkshire but nearly!
I have had a break from preserving for a few weeks following 50lbs of home grown strawberries which I made into jam. Now there are lots of cooking apples, so I am thinking chutney and pies! No plums this year though.
