Where's the rain?

Firstly, to continue yesterday - I went for a short walk up the towpath in the evening and had a very good view of a Little Owl on a nearby fencepost.

Back to today - as we had been on the move every day since Manchester and rain was forecast for lunchtime we decided to take the day off and stay at this superb mooring for another night.

In the morning we went for a 6 mile walk across the countryside to Gargrave and then walked back along the towpath. As we returned the clouds were looking very threatening and there was the sound of distant thunder.

Since then no rain! We can see very heavy storms to the north, but nothing here (yet).

Mike spent the afternoon working on his latest OU Maths course assignment while Denise was working on her beading.
