Ambleside, day 2
       |     | |
The weather took a little turn for the worse, but it seemed to clear up and pretty much stop raining about halfway through. We just couldn't be bothered to remove the waterproof over-trouser thingies. So what's happening? We drove to White Moss, somewhere between Rydal and Grasmere and then walked to Grasmere for lunch. Realising we still had a fair amount of time, we took a different, longer route back to the car, via the old coffin route, kind of retracing some of the steps I made on my stag do. So yeah . . . that was good. That night we watched the 'absolutely hilarious' film, Bernie, and then went out for dinner at Zeffirelli's. The food was good, but M**** thought the restaurant had an odd atmosphere. Also, the service failed towards the end. What is it with restaurant staff completely forgetting / ignoring their customers after it seems obvious that they've finished eating? How about asking if we want coffees / desserts or perhaps we just wanna pay the bill and get the hell out of there? Hmmm? But no . . . so you're kind of saying goodbye to any hope of getting a tip after we've been sat around waiting for like 20 minutes to be served. Shame, really. Anyway, we went for a quick drink at this new pub not far from our flat and that was that.
