Benbow slewed, wallowed and rolled as six sweeps tried to row in unison, only succeeding in striking each other more often than they struck the water.

Arms ached and sweat poured; language became very adult and boys who had been good friends became bitter enemies. We probably used eight miles to effect a journey of...more
Why is it that, especially in retrospect, we seem to derive more fun from the trivia and minutiae of life, than from any thing else? Standing that morning on the jetty I think we both realized this. I certainly did, and I know that for many years the Lake District, to me, meant quite simply, Windermere, the lake itself, messing about in boats, minnow catching and perch fishing, scrambling around the islands, and dog crawling, without modern aids beneath the surface of what was then an unpolluted lake. Good days, free from gimmicks; days when good and lasting friendships were formed. Each of our lakes has its own particular spell to cast on those of us who are receptive, and that morning I saw Windermere's own brand of magic manifest itself by erasing acquired and care fully nurtured affectations from a politician, and a sour look from the face of a friend.

However, this road makes its own apologies by giving us glimpses of the lake across the meadows, and compensates for its man made faults by affording if one has time to stroll to the top a splendid view from Queen Adelaide's Hill, beneath which have been provided a car park and a rustic-tabled picnic area. If time is short, then a brief halt at the...more
