How does the old song go? “Don’t know why, there’s no sun up in the sky, Stormy weather. Well it certainly was on Saturday as Storm Darragh blew into town. I had thought about staying in under my own roof for the day but there’ll be time enough and more for that soon enough.

Okay, so picking up from the Kirkby Lonsdale entry. I landed back into Lancaster in the early evening. It was dark now though the rain had eased quite a bit.
