It’s cold, wet and windy outside. Perfect weather for staying in and re-organising the pantry and the kitchen cupboards. I know how to live, and no one can tell me otherwise 🤣 #womanofacertainage

👀 look at this opportunity to get behind rewilding in the Lake District. I love the fells around skiddaw and blencathra but it’s a bleak upland desert. Oh to see it full of trees & life! A success here would be a great proof of impact for other projects - and minimise flooding. Help if you can!
