Lakeland Miniature Village & Oriental Garden

Flookburgh is an ancient village on the Cartmel peninsula in Cumbria, until 1974 part of Lancashire. Being close to Morecambe Bay, fishing plays a big part in village life. Cockle and shrimp fishermen still venture out onto the sands every day, nowadays using specially adapted tractors. Flookburgh is sometimes thought to derive its name from a flat fish, known as the Fluke, found in the area. However, it is far more likely that the name is Norse, an adaptation of 'Flugga's Town'.

Haven Lakeland Leisure Park, caravan water supply, and a wet Tide awning

We visit another Haven campsite with our caravan, this time to Lakeland in the Lake District. Again, we stay on one of their Euro Pitches, which is a fully serviced hard-standing caravan or motorhome pitch, complete with water, electric, wastewater, and tv aerial point.
In this video, I show you a little bit more about connecting up the caravan to the water supply at the Euro Pitch.
Despite the good weather, we get rained on. So what do you do with a wet caravan awning when you need to leave?

Steam Powered Funfair - Hollycombe

Hollycombe steam powered funfair, what I would reluctantly call a vintage funfair. A great day out at Britains largest working steam collection. Each ride is powered by its own coal fire stream engine and is many years old. Most of the rides are from the Edwardian era or are at least in that style.

Rides include:
Steam carousel
Steam ferris wheel
Steam razzel dazzel as seen on the hairy bikers
Steam chair-o-swing
Steam swings
Steam high flyer

Roseberry Topping - Great Ayton, Country Walk North Yorkshire

We parked the car in Great Ayton where Captain James Cook studied as a child, and headed for the public footpath in Newton Road to commence the actual walk to Roseberry Topping & further onto Captain Cook's Monument at Easby Moor.

The day of the walk was an exceptional Spring day '27th of March 2012' and was infact one of the very best days in almost thirty years, the sun was very warm with virtually no wind.

Roseberry Topping is formed from sandstone, it is also known as the 'Yorkshire Matterhorn' due to its sugarloaf appearance, in 1912 half of the sandstone split away leaving what we can see today.

On a clear day from the summit you can see the entire Cleveland Plain which can stretch for upto fifty miles with views of the North Pennines to the West, alittle closer is the sprawling industrial town of Middlesborough.

Roseberry Topping is 1049 feet / 320 metres in height.
