Keswick In The Rain

I took these photographs in the middle of May! Just look how overcast and dark it was. The light levels were really poor, so what you see above, is what I saw. With drizzle falling, it wasn't surprising that the town of Keswick was pretty quiet!
Only handful of folk around. 

Oddfellows Arms. 
Hardly any customers for Old Keswickian Chippy. 
Umbrella weather at the Dog & Gun.  
The rear of The Moot Hall which is also Keswick's Tourist Information Centre. 
John Young & Son. 

Where did all these folk suddenly come from as the rain stopped? 
The Cats Protection League had a stand in front of the Bank Tavern.

Not really a day for ice cream.
