Another visit to Morecambe is over, another day is done. I’ve been coming to the resort for virtually all of my life, so every visit is cloaked with an ephemeral dusting of half forgotten memories. This slight melancholic feeling isn’t helped by the sparse facilities at the towns station. The impression is reinforced by being able to see the elegant building on the front that used to be the town’s […]
I have a liking for the walk along the promenade at Morecambe, especially the stretch from the Battery to Heysham village. The concrete seats and tables always catch my eye, I can never quite decide whether they are really for use or for decoration. Whenever I sit at one of them I half expect to be chased off by an irate gallery attendant. https://exploremorecambebay.org.uk/ https://www.visitlancashire.com/explore/morecambe-bay Other Links. https://lachlan-main.pixels.com/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/-/e/B00TKGBNYM https://www.shutterstock.com/g/Lachlan1/sets
Out and about again, on the train and heading for the coast at Morecambe. There’ll be a stop off at Lancaster because it’s market day and as you know I like markets. And there’s some good coffee places too. There may be cake also. The day continues. https://www.visitlancashire.com/explore/preston https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Tourism-g187062-Preston_Lancashire_England-Vacations.html https://www.visitpreston.com/ Other Links. https://www.shutterstock.com/g/Lachlan1/sets https://www.amazon.co.uk/-/e/B00TKGBNYM https://lachlan-main.pixels.com/
My day in Chester continues. I am currently sat in the Square Bottle, a Wetherspoons pub, enjoying a refreshing pint that is cheaper than a coffee from some of the surrounding caffeine outlets. I’m enjoying a pint of Full Whack from the Peerless Brewery of Birkenhead, very refreshing and just the thing for a muggy afternoon. https://www.visitcheshire.com/chester https://www.visit-chester.co.uk/ https://www.visitcheshire.com/ Other Links. https://www.amazon.co.uk/-/e/B00TKGBNYM https://www.shutterstock.com/g/Lachlan1/sets https://lachlan-main.pixels.com/
The day unfolds, what started out as an unpromising day has blossomed nicely in Chester. The city is a regular go to place, there’s always plenty going on, the area around the Town Hall and market is currently being redeveloped. These things can either end well…….or less so….. See how it goes. https://www.visitcheshire.com/chester https://www.visitcheshire.com/ https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attractions-g186233-Activities-Chester_Cheshire_England.html Other Links. https://lachlan-main.pixels.com/ https://www.artflakes.com/en/shop/lachlan-main https://www.amazon.co.uk/-/e/B00TKGBNYM https://www.shutterstock.com/g/Lachlan1/sets
I’m off and about again, making up for the limbo of the lockdowns. I decided to risk the chance of a rain shower and walk to one of my local stations. Glad I did. Part way down the High Street I spotted a new ( well new to me ) coffee shop, Mamma J’s. For once I had time to spare and you have to give these things a try, […]
