So…on Sunday we got away to South Lakeland, down the Barrow Peninsula, to Ulverston, birthplace of Stan Laurel of Laurel and Hardy fame. We were there to see Kate Rusby at The Coronation Hall in the evening but had time for a lovely walk up to the monument on Hoad Hill and dinner at The Mill back in town before Kate’s lovely concert.
