Came on to research a pesky airbag off switch fault and noticed you guys are coming to my area. Unfortunately I don't think I'll still be in the country come June, but if I am I may come and say hello. Off the top of my head, a few gems if you get chance...


Farrah's coffee shop in Kendal
Keswick Saturday market
Toys and hobbies in Keswick (has the best outdoorsy shop hidden in the back)
Angel Lane chippy in Penrith (or Fish Express if you don't want to leave kendal)

You're Also not too far from the greatest UK drive you can do in a D2....

Brough (Kirkby Stephen) to Consett via Stanhope.


Hope you guys have an amazing time.
