Finally the sun came out on Saturday at our peak district cottages.  One cottage departed but with no arrivals our quandary was which day do we go on a walk?  We opted for Sunday and chose Saturday to do a lot of outside jobs.  I potted up most of the plants and bulbs I recently bought and if the worst came to the worst it would not matter if I got no more gardening done.  Chris cleared the courtyard and car park of leaves and and used the mower to hoover the leaves from the gardens.  He also topped up the log stores.  So after all that Sunday started of dreary again so the walk went out of the window.  One cottage out then went to Ashford to get the paper to avoid the Remembrance Sunday march from the Church into Bakewell.  Jobs around the house and when the sky eventually started to brighten up later in the afternoon we decided to head for the Chatsworth Christmas Market. Despite it being so late in the day it was still very busy, as Chris commented, he would have turned the car round if he had come earlier in the day and seen all the cars.  As the market took up one of the car park aisles the front lawn had been used as a overflow car park.  There is another one next weekend (18-20 Nov).  Walked the market a couple of times, the crowds thinning all the time.  Bought a few bits including a Christmas pudding.  Don’t think the dogs were too impressed with this excursion!  In the evening watched Countryfile which was filmed mainly around the upper Derwent Valley.  Now I know why Snake Pass is called so!  They also did a feature on the River Lathkill.  Hope you watched it too! Here are some pics from Chatsworth.
