After a hearty breakfast we set off for Cockermouth in the rain, stopping in Ambleside for a spot of luncheon and Lake Districtness. On the way Mike was in the midst of composing a tune to be entitled ‘Custard’ as a follow up to a tune called ‘Rhubarb’, which his old band, Sin E used to play. After setting up, we headed to a great pub around the corner called the ‘Bitter End’ for an amazing meal and local ale. A nice, Sunday evening gig followed and we then split up so that half the band could make it to the ‘Bitter End’ before last orders. Myself and Mike headed to the guest house to check in. Our guest house for the night had different scented air fresheners at every turn. I managed to lock my keys in my room and fortunately retrieve them in time to make it back to the pub.
