Don't know what I did yesterday but my knee is not working properly today so Steve and I dropped Chris & Mark at Aira Force and we went for a walk down by Ullswater its self. Whilst we where eating lunch a small sailing boat with a strange, to me, sail arrangement, appeared so I tried to photograph it through my birding scope. The results are grainy but I think worth sharing. Sorry it was very overcast today so the photos are a bit flat.

After a picnic Lunch Steve and I then drove to Dockray to meet up with Chris and Mark at The Royal Hotel a local pub. Whilst there I noticed some sculptures made from wire netting in the garden and thought they where interesting. It had started to rain by now so the photos are a bit dark.

After a refreshment break in the the pub we drove to The Rheged Centre where in addition to a display of some work by local artists we found some more of the wire sculptures, this set showing a diver doing a single piked somersault {photos courtesy of Marks phone}.
I haven't forgotten the fungi
