It’s been a trip to Chester day today. A bit on the cool side still but as always it’s good to get out and about. There were some Chinese New Year celebrations in progress, I caught up with them as they paraded along Northgate Street. Food was also checked out, it was a cold day after all and calories warm you up. So that was the day, short but sweet. […]

Well as the temperatures outside bounce around between cold, very cold and really really cold my list compiling for places to visit goes on. Buxton, the Derbyshire spa town has been added to the 2023 list.

If you take the road or the train out towards Oban you’ll pass Dalmally and Loch Awe. Sat brooding by the shore of the loch is Kilchurn Castle.

Sitting at the tip of the Black Isle Cromarty is home to the Ferry across the mouth of the Cromarty Firth to Nigg on the northern shore.

The winter planning continues, though as I look out of the window I wonder if summer is ever coming back or was it just a figment of my imagination.
