CHESTER. The Butterfly & The Flower.
I had hazy, lazy Sunday on my hands and the weather, for once, didn’t have a sulky face on it. Not wanting to waste sunshine or fresh air I set my sights on Chester.
Food
SNAPSHOT! Windermere, The Return.
I’m sitting at a railway station and yes I have a ticket for my destination. It’s been been one of those off the cuff days that ends up giving more than you thought. It’s been good to catch up with some familiar and not so familiar places not the great unhappiness is lifting. From tonight/tomorrow there will be more daylight again so we can come out of mole mode and […]
SNAPSHOT! Kendal For The Lakes.
And again the sun is up, the skies are blue and the birds are singing rather than coughing. So I am embarked on a trip around the Lake District. Not all of it today, just Kendal and Windermere. The clocks change tonight (that UK things where time leaps back and forward in Spring & Autumn) so the days will now start to spread their wings and the darkest of night […]
SNAPSHOT! Leyland, Worden Park Walkabout.
The sun is shining and the breezes are warm so rather than stay indoors I took myself off to Leyland in Lancashire for a wander around Worden Park. The park is on the edge of the town, an easy walk from the railway station and yes I stopped for a bite to eat on the way through. The park is an oasis on the site of a grand house which […]
SNAPSHOT! Eyam, September Sheep Roast.
I was out and about in Derbyshire and after a brief food stop in Bakewell I headed up to the plague village of Eyam. In an echo of things to come they isolated themselves after an outbreak of the Black Death was brought into the town in a flea infested roll of cloth brought up from London. Of happier note they have an annual celebration inspired by the Festival of […]
SNAPSHOT! Fleetwood, Ice cream, Sunshine & A Little Lighthouse.
Leaving the market I headed out to the promenade. The sun was glorious with only the shadows hiding a cool edge to the day. That said people were out and about enjoying the first bursts of almost spring warmth, throwing off the shackles of a winter that is in danger of overstaying it’s welcome.
