Post by: Beemumma on June 12, 2008, 20:56:12 PM: Hello woowoo, I'm not from "The Lakes" I'm from way down south, about as far south as you can be without being in the sea :)

Post by: Sue P (Paddysmum) on June 16, 2008, 21:33:31 PM: Hiya Woowoo - :welcome: Am not from the Lakes, but I've been quite a lot! :wow: Sometimes rent a little cottage in Silverdale in the southern lakes. :)
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 16, 2008, 22:01:43 PM: Silverdale is nice. Have you been to the Wolf Gallery? I must go one of these days. Never get time though! ;)
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: Sue P (Paddysmum) on June 17, 2008, 07:15:17 AM: OOOh yes - it's fab - in fact where I was staying, you just turn out of the cottage, out of the gate and it's there! The cottage is in the grounds of Wolf House, adjacent to the gallery. It's a wonderful place. ;D

Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 17, 2008, 22:24:41 PM: Hey Tab you only have to jump on the train! It stops nearly opposite my house! I could wave as you go past to Windermere!! :rofl:

Post by: Corporal Smokey on June 19, 2008, 17:11:12 PM: I'm from mighty Morecambe and going up to Kendal for my mum's wedding next week (she moved there not so long ago).

In Derbyshire now though. Ho hum...
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 19, 2008, 19:54:58 PM: I took two kittens in from Morecambe recently. The people left a bit to be desired!
Have you seen the Midland, it looks gorgeous! There is a lovely book out on it.
Is your Mum getting married in Kendal? Cos on Sat there is the annual cat show at the Leisure centre, if you could sneak off!!! :naughty:

Post by: candyshandy on June 19, 2008, 19:59:05 PM: I'm from Preston and will be popping up to the Kendal cat show on saturday ;)
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 19, 2008, 20:30:57 PM: I'm only going to see if there are any bargains for the rescues!!! ;D
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: Corporal Smokey on June 20, 2008, 08:43:00 AM: Na, sadly I won't be there in time. I haven't been to Morecambe for a while, largely due to having an insane ex there! Glad to hear the Midland is finally getting the love it so desperately need for such a long time.

I'll be popping in to Torrisholme to visit my Grandma so I might just nip to the front and have a nosey.

Hope you got to the cat show today. I spent too much as usual :rofl: Lots of gorgeous cats :Luv2: Quite fancied a Maine Coon!!!
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: candyshandy on June 22, 2008, 00:18:02 AM: Yep battled through the wind and the rain!!

I was mainly around the persians and kept a woman I know company who was showing her persian - who ended up winning best persian of the show! He is beautiful and called Candyman - a stunning cream and white bicolour :Luv:

( I spent £80!! :shify: :Crazy:)
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 22, 2008, 11:21:19 AM: It was a bit damp wasn't it! Still we wouldn't have the Lakes otherwise ;D I spent close on £100, but most of it was for the rescues :Luv2:
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 22, 2008, 11:24:10 AM: Meant to say the cats were beautiful. Had a look at the Persians. Even my friend who is not a cat person fancied a little Exotic. It was cute in a kind of way that only a mother could love!!! :rofl:
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: candyshandy on June 22, 2008, 12:22:42 PM: Was it a little black one ?
Title: Re: Newbie from The Lakes!
Post by: woowoo on June 22, 2008, 12:37:19 PM: It was a little grey and apricot I think! Did see two black Persians which were really adorable. :Luv2: I'd love a long haired cat, my heart was sold on a Maine Coon boy :Luv2: I look after quite a few Persians and they are so laid back, really cuddly :Luv:
