What a wonderful morning I’ve had in lovely Lancaster! I enjoyed a very warm welcome from some friendly Lancashire folk – though the weather was rather chilly today. Just as well I’m used to the freezing Antarctic myself!
And what a rich cultural heritage you chaps have – I was very impressed by your charming castles and museums. There’s nothing like that where I Iive – but then we don’t have the Pendle witches either. I was told the spook-tacular tale of how they were tried and convicted in Lancaster Castle. Oo-er – not that I believe in hauntings of course, but let’s just say I’m glad I won’t be here after dark today!
As a seabird I was hoping to take a trip to the maritime museum, but the morning just flew by chatting to people about how the NHS can help them quit smoking and live a healthy lifestyle.
Despite the drizzly weather, we had quite a few people sign up for the stop smoking service today, which was fantastic - apparently there were over 2000 successful quitters in North Lancashire PCT last year and it would be brilliant if we could do even better this year. Here's a picture of me with Kris Drewery, a lady I met today who had managed to quit after 30 years of smoking – that’s quite an achievement!
After a quick bite to eat (fish and chips of course) there was just time to wave goodbye to my new found friends before setting off North for the next part of my tour - Carlisle.
