Countryfile filming!

We spent a lovely week up at my parents' place in Cumbria the week before last. It felt like a real holiday, and Matilda had so much fun that a week later she is still asking to 'go back to Nanny's house'. One morning while we were there Mum and Dad were being filmed for an episode of Countryfile. The episode is about the North Pennines, with a small section about my parents' winemaking business, High Cup Wines. It was great fun to watch the filming and meet presenter Matt Baker, who seemed like a lovely bloke.

It should be broadcast on 4 September, 8pm on BBC2. Hopefully you'll see my parents' winemaking in action!
