Hi Barbara

My local radio station, Radio Lancashire has been full of it this morning. Celebrate with traditional Lancashire food and a pint of Thwaites

Such a shame it's such a grey, miserable day here in Lancaster today.  Mists and mellow fruitfulness. But without the fruitfulness.   :)

I'm catching up fast now! there's all sorts of stuff going on out there it seems (I must be spending too much time indoors and online).

This is my favourite Lancashire Day event so far, from listings on the Friends of Real Lancashire website. A well known Lancashire tradition?

"A Champagne Breakfast to celebrate Lancashire Day"
