Anyone in Bakewell ? We’re packing for L’Eroica. Walking boots or wellies for the showground ? I’d much rather it was boots, but I’ll take advice.

Thanks

Both – and a pair of flippers too! 😀

I was working there on Monday. The show ground was very, very wet and I don’t think it’s stopped raining since.

Definitely wellies. And snorkel.

Forecast is ok for Saturday and Sunday though.

Bakewell Showground gets wetter than a wet thing and it’s been binning it down round here on and off for ages now. Wellies at the very least.

Fluffy on top, sweet underneath…!

I am, and it’s been hammering it down this week, flash floods on roads and some homes flooded out down the A6 Valley. But forecast is for it drying up a bit from Friday over the weekend. But the ground is very wet, particularly in the usual fields where water tends to lie, and as pointed out above Bakewell show ground is one of those. Big wellies and a change of wellies I’m afraid, summer does need to try harder here at the mo.

Pudding is where it’s at.

Yikes ! I don’t have a ‘change of wellies’.

Fortunately we’re not camping…

I guess I had assumed you would be camping, and I don’t know why. Pair of wellies and somewhere warm and dry to retire to; you should have a blast then. Enjoy 🙂
