Osprey was built in 1902 as a private steam launch. She became a passenger vessel for the Bowness Bay Boating Company in 1948 and then saw many years of active service before joining the collection of the Windermere Steamboat Museum where it continued to take visitors out on the lake.

Appreciating the Morning Sky

We watched a lot of sky together, Mum and I.
Sunsets and sunrises a plently.
I think perhaps it became her one true constant, especially given the constant anxieties of missing loved ones.
Some nights she'd love to just sit and watch the clouds forming, changing shape and rolling slowly by.
Some mornings, like this one I recall, the sky was enough, better than anything else to hand, something reassuringly ever-present.
Well, a nice sky and another cup of tea.
