Wednesday is another travelling day, this time north across the border to visit Malcolm, Marina and the kids. Although with the Scottish independence vote imminent it might be take your passport with you when you hit the big sign that says "Welcome to Scotland".
It's an easy run up the M6 but I wish we could find the entrance to the toll roll as you don't get all the road work delays, mind you we say that every time, we can find it coming down but not up.
Made the usual stop at the Stafford services for guess what, you got it Costa coffee. Then a side trip to Windermere in the Lake District for a picnic and some chips from the Eastern European guy the served me last year.

Feeding the geese...
The road from Windermere back to the M6 north is narrow and windy and takes you over the Kirkstone Pass, the last time we did it, it was so cold Penny would not get out of the car. Today was warm and sunny and very pleasant.
