Jane Darwell was semi-retired from acting, other than a rare television guest appearance. She had recently moved into the Motion Picture Country Home because of her advanced age and feebleness. When Disney offered her the role of the Bird Woman in Mary Poppins (1964), Darwell declined the role. Walt Disney, still insistent, personally drove to the retirement home to plead with her and she agreed to take the part. It was her last acting role. In this pivotal scene in the movie, the Bird Woman at the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral Square sells bags of bread crumbs to passers-by to feed the pigeons.

In memory of Hairy Biker Dave Myers, a large convoy of motorcycles will travel through the south of the county this weekend, from London to Barrow-In-Furness for memorial events. With increased motorcycle traffic around Cumbria during Dave Day and following days, please take extra time to look, especially at junctions, thoroughly check blind spots before maneuvering, keep your distance as motorcycles stop quicker than larger vehicles, and pass carefully, giving slow-moving bikes plenty of room. Additionally, expect delays due to the Arla Great North Swim at Windermere, impacting traffic from Junction 36 M6 and along the A590 to Barrow-In-Furness.
