Sad News

It is with great sadness that we learnt of the death of Isobel Currie yesterday morning in WCH following a recent severe fall. At 102 Isobel, widow of Jimmie, was our oldest club member having joined over 60 years ago.

She had a great life and really enjoyed living.

Our thoughts are with son Neil, daughter Liz, and family at this sad time.

Isobel’s funeral to be at Crosthwaite Church in Keswick at 10.30 am on Friday 30th of January.

Refreshments afterwards at the Ruddings Hotel in Braithwaite.

Yellow/Amber weather warning

200mm plus rainfall forecast for Keswick, Saturday night through to Monday.

The 2009 and 2015 floods happened when rain exceeded met office forecast and Keswick got 300mm in 24 hours. Saturday morning’s forecast, of 200mm plus, on top of existing high lake and river levels means all boats at club should be shifted at least to the highest bit by flagpole.
