Fond memories of the pubs in Ambleside and the girls

Best B&B ever there Mrs Dee's a dear old lady who the group of 8 lads as 7 of us stopped out instead of going home to her beds for the night, she new as she could see 7 beds still made and a girls feet sticking out of the one that was occupied

One of those weekends that will be with me forever
