Quiz: How much do you know about the Lake District?

Post by tiger76 » Sat May 29, 2021 8:50 pm

Usual weekly offering, I got 6/16 but I've never visited the lakes, it is on my bucket list when restrictions allow however as it's not that far for us to travel.https://www.wanderlust.co.uk/content/la ... 741f9df7e

15...as the Lakes were my second home for many years, would have been disappointed if I scored below that.
