ullswater

I had quite a few to post but accidentally deleted them
I'm mega useless with technology


I was told a story of my toddler days when the family had gone to Ullswater for a picnic
I can't remember any of the story at all, but apparently I must have been going on about -going in the 'big bath', apparently I kept making a beeline to try and get in.

My auntie tells the story better than anyone, according to her I must have waited till the family were packing up for the day, then I made squeeking scream and began running hell for leather towards the 'big bath' apparently my Dad fell over and broke his specs running after me, my elder sister was first to reach me (already up to my waist) and I started splashing water at her, My mother was doing her nut at me as she waded in to get me,

To this day my family refer to Ullswater as the 'big bath'

worra little sod eh!

Thanks for the nice comments BTW

 

Hi cumberland. As others have said, a nice pic there :thumb: You obviously have an eye for a shot and know how to work it. Hope you don't mind, but Kirkstone Pass was mentioned. We were at the Lake District two years ago (and yes....it rained EVERY day :( ) and I took a few snaps whilst we were en-route to the far end of Ullswater (north....I think). Anyway, herewith a pic of Kirkstone Pass, not up to your standard, but I think it shows the great beauty of that area. Although, as Steve rightly says, it's all nice :D



Cheers...freddy.

 

Great shot Cumberland.:thumb:
Freddy last time I hiked over Kirkstone it was in a thunder storm you could only see a couple of yards,that's an excellent shot .:thumb:

 

Kirkstone again, overlooking Brothers water..



I like the "Big bath" name for Ullswater..
