Wednesday 20th April

Sunshine again!
G into Stafford for a manicure so we say our goodbyes to Tone and Marg after a great week together.
Set off north up the M6 late morning and plan to take a detour to Kendal in the Lake District ( we had spent our wedding night there in 1973 so wanted to re-visit the scene of the crime.). Too much traffic so we stop to eat our snackfood at a parking spot with a great view of the surrounding hills.
Arrive in Moffat at about 3.00 and are pleasantly surprised to find that the Balmoral Hotel has upgraded us to an apartment in the Stables. Moffat is a delightful town so take a quick stroll along the river, view the narrowest hotel in the world ( The Star )
Dinner at the Buccleuch Arms where we eat far too much of the local fare before retiring for an early night.
