This week Russell is forsaking the call of the sea for a journey inland over hill and rail – steam-drawn, of course – from Haverthwaite to Lakeside pier for a day out on Windermere.
Steamboats and handbell ringers, windsurfers, swing hypes and dog-falls from the Cumberland wrestlers – all part of a motley crew joining Russell live aboard the pleasure boat Teal for a leisurely trip around the lake.
