Low tide so the gate is shut.

The campsite on the harbor has plenty of pitches at this time of year.

Had a drive up to Silloth today and Workington for some shopping very difficult to park in Workington but twice round the town and got one.

Today drove into Maryport for a coffee with a friend trying the new promenade cafe not for us to many dogs and a small area tables to close to each other coffee not hot enough so will not use again.

Had a walk down into Allonby the old reading rooms now converted to a stunning house looks good.

But its an old fishing town having 10 pubs in the 1800 and before that a great place for smugglers with a trail across to the Lake District.
