Just a quick laugh


I thought you might like a bit of a laugh, came across these pictures that were sent to me and wanted to share with you all.


This chap was going for GOLD for surfing, at least if it was an Olympic spot then he would certainly be in the running for a bravery GOLD. I have to wonder what happened next, it must have really hurt!!



Well, it appears that the animal kingdom are just as bad as the humans for obeying signs, however this kingfisher just wants to prove it's point!! (King of Fishing, perhaps).



Hope these keep you going at the start of the week, with all its highs and lows.

Ullswater Landing Page - Romantic Lake District


Yet another landing page for the Ullswater area in the Lake District National Park. This has been setup to join our other three landing pages for Ambleside, Windermere and Grasmere. Keeping the same layout and format as the other three, this should help keep it standardised for guests looking to book self catering cottages in specific areas of the National Park.

You can find this new page at Ullswater Lake District Cottages, once again pass this link on to family and friends to assist them in finding a great cottage holiday for this area of the Lake District. We would also ask that if you like this page, then could you tweet, +1 or like it on facebook.

We hope this will help make your search for a holiday a lot easier and less stressful. 


Look out for more discounts, special deals in further posts, or use our landing pages for AmblesideWindermereGrasmere and now Ullswater to select a superb cottage at really great prices. We will also have some general pictures and interesting news posted as well.

Men's Finn - Olympic Sailing | London 2012

Men's Finn - Olympic Sailing | London 2012


This is very tight, only 2 points in it so all to lose in the medal race.

Has Ben Ainslie been made mad enough to rattle the cage of the Danish sailor, who has been sailing very well. Personally I believe Ben can do it and sail off into the sunset with the GOLD.

Come on BEN, go team GB!!!

Lucky Chance Picture - Hedgehog


Picture of a small hedgehog just sitting by the side of the path



Saw this poor little hedgehog by the side of the path on my way into work this morning, as I approached, it was walking around in small circles, almost as if it was a bit dazed.

Took the phone out to take the picture and it then stopped and kind of posed, more like it was watching to see what I was going to do.

This is unusual as hedgehog usually scurry away at the slightest movement near them.

Enjoy the picture, sorry about the quality as it was taken by phone.
