Today's drizzle and gloom contrasts strongly with yesterday's brightness. In Penrith, all was peace and sunshine as we sat in the wonderful Wordsworth Bookshop beside the church.
We had to leave Penrith long before the torch was due to arrive; when we got to Carlisle we found crowds and capers, and a bookshop with most of its window taken over by The Boy.

An air of excitement built up until the torch came through with its many vehicles and razzmataz, but the human joy still shone through.
