Having had a few weeks break from our weekly walk due to bad weather, illness (Tom), and a sore knee (David & Me) we headed out to Allonby on the Cumbria coast to walk to Silloth and then get the bus back to Allonby. The weather forecast said it would rain at 3.00pm and as we boarded the bus at 3.09pm the heavens opened. It was a splendid walk and finished with a lovely cream tea in a new small cafe in Silloth.

| Silloth Golf Club and one of the greens we walked past. A certain Langholm Blogger would be delighted with the green as it looked in absolute perfect condition but I bet the golfers found it difficult to get onto the green as it is elevated on all 4 sides. The golf course looks really tough and with the wind blowing as it was today there must be a lot of golf balls loss in the heather surrounding many of the fairways. |

I have played Silloth and enjoyed it a good deal. It isn't as bad as you think. (If you are playing well.)
Fraser has an app called Dark Sky that tells him it will rain in "8 minutes". It is pretty darn accurate. Would be much more useful there as it has not rained much this year.
Leslie it would be better over here to have an App that will tell us it isn't going to rain.
