Had dithered about doing a car boot on Sunday morning but with an uncertain forecast decided not to.  Could have as first shower wasn’t until late morning but never mind.  One cottage out and one back in later in the day, this had already been cleaned.  The gate had been opened for the cows to come into the drive field and on Sunday morning the first girls ventured back into the drive field after an absence of over a month.  Went down to Ashford to get the paper and called in at the couple we know.  They are having a new kitchen installed so we thought we would check on the progress.  After a chat and a coffee we came home and pondered what to do.  Although it was quite muggy there was the odd light shower so after lunch and after the cottage arrived, they have been before, we drove over to Taddington.  We haven’t been there for a while and thought we would have a look at the well dressings.  When we got there it was obvious they had had a heavy down pour especially as a gazebo had been erected over the main well dressing near the church.  As it was mid afternoon it was very busy, usually we go later in the day, and I had hoped to see the flower festival in the church but a brass band concert was taking place so could only see a part of it.  After we had viewed the dressing and the stalls in the church’s grounds we had a wander down the main street and noticed how many alleyways and paths were leading off it.  We took one of these (literally) up to the second well dressing.  From here we could look out over the local countryside and see Fin Cop but most of the village was obscured by leaves of trees.  We walked down another path back to the village and then drove over to Flagg for an afternoon tea.  It stayed cloudy but later in the evening it misted over at home, I thought it might be a precursor to a heavy storm but it soon cleared and we didn’t see any storms at our peak district cottages after all.
