Amazing to see a photo with vivid childhood memories. This is the side of the Entwistle Cup, which I recall as being *the* hotly contested trophy (for children in Suffolk) at what used to be the Barrow and District Horticultural Society Show... @jessasatomp.bsky.social is that you on there too?

A wintery blast in Grasmere
Snowy scene with Broadgate in the foreground - a field gate, bench, red phone box and dry stone wall. Snowy trees and snow on fells beyond.

Not a bad day in Grasmere
Long shadows, green fields and blue sky over the fells Sun rising over White Moss with Loughrigg in shadow. Blue sky. Green fields. Blue of the sky reflected in the River Rothay. Green fields. Bright sunlit trees. Fells beyond. Morning sheep, in a field.

Another wonderful autumn day in Grasmere at the bookshelves punctuated by author visits, phone calls from authors and a few bookbuyers too.
Sunshine on trees in autumn leaf seen along Broadgate. An outline of a sunny fell seen through the mist. Sam Read's bookshop on the corner.
