Welcome to the midsummer edition, in the
middle of some very un-summery weather. The
wildflowers were photographed in the fields
and valleys of Cumbria between showers and
some great hill walks.
In Ludlow we are holding the annual Arts
Festival, so visitors from all over the world
are here, as well as the summer course
members at the Centre. There's Shakespeare
and concerts, fireworks, a buzzing street
scene and farm tours for the foodies.
Punctuating the Festival, and our summer
course at the Centre, the town had floods
like a lot of the rest of the country. The
day before the rains, our local reservoir ran
dry! After the worst downpour one of our
guests was caught in rising waters and had to
be rescued by landrover, and one of the town
bridges collapsed under the volume of water.
Two days later we were in the garden again in
warm sunshine.
