Lake District orienteers

[Peter B]

Just a few questions....
Where do you live, in the city or in the country?

If you live in the country, do you have access to TV/mobile phone reception, and if not do you get by without?

If you live in the country, what part of the Lakes do you live in?

What's it like to live in this part of the Lake District?

Would you rather live somewhere else?

How far do you have to go to get to the nearest food shop?

Where do you work/go to school, in the city or in the country?

If you live out in the country and work/go to school in the city, how long/treacherous is the commute?

How much does it rain in the Lake District?

Thanks for satisfying my curiosity.

Don't think Carlisle is in the Lake District. Cumbria yes, lakes no.

Why??

[Ed]

I live in the Lake District. It's the Mecklenburger Lake District though... (well, Mecklenburgische Seenplatte translates about like that anyway, except that there's more Lakes here)

Oh, and it's about 4km to the shop, so long as you go straight through the forest.

I guess those answers aren't very helpful though...

To answer the original questionses

- City
- N/A
- N/A
- which part of the Lake District ?
- not right now
- 400 yards (approximately)
- City
- I don't but you do have to watch out for the slobbering Grassmarketeeers as you pass Grayfriars Bobby, and the tourists taking photos of the bloody statue with its little pool of fetid water. Then occasionally some toss pot in a Beamer with a Big Shot complex tries to run you over on the Mound. The wind can be pretty treacherous walking back up Dundas Street, it kind of hits the buildings on one side and starts spiralling down the hill.
- More than some places, less than others.
