Cumbrian Coast Line to close for 23 days http://dlvr.it/TJjvwJ #Cumbria #Disruption #Infrastructure #NetworkRail


If you missed Prof DJ's Soul Night in Lancaster on Friday, but live in the Lune Valley, Prof DJ is doing it all again on Sunday afternoon at The Royal Barn, Kirkby Lonsdale (LA6 2AB) where Soul Sunday is always a good way to decompress....

four hours of prime soul cuts from Northern Soul to Motown, from Stax to country-infused Southern Soul, every track is lovely curated - not to be missed (but then I would say that)

The Cumbrian fell runner

I loved this short podcast about Joss Naylor, a Cumbrian Shepherd who holds the British record for the 3 peaks run, along with many other records. He died in 2024 at the age of 88. Give it a listen.

Morning Run

The light at this time of the year can be so lovely in Northern Britain. We spent the night in Cumbria and got out above Shap on the old 'concrete road', returning alongside the A6 (not as bad as you might think). 15k, cold with some ice but a fast surface.

Ju7st the hound and self, along with a small terrier we picked up en route (and took back). Partner a little under the weather, Mum asleep and my sister - well it was early!

Kirkland

Kirkland township, a region of Kendal, Cumbria, from the south of the Blindbeck stream. This was an independent settlement 'church land' which had its own manor court and was not officially absorbed into the borough of Kendal until 1908.
