The days are now getting criminally short and grey, not exactly solar panel friendly. I didn’t fancy being in the house all day, watching the grim weather go by, there’ll be time enough and more for that. So after a bit of thinking I decided on Grange over Sands as a suitable place to spend a couple of hours. I landed up at Lancaster with an hour to spare for […]
A bit of a photo dump sort of post, I’m on my way down to Cardiff to do some visiting. I’ m enjoying the comfort of the TfW (Transport for Wales) big train, proper coaches etc. It was an early start and so far all has gone to plan. Only the one hitch, to be organised I pre-booked my Chester to Cardiff ticket, opting to collect on the day. All […]
Well here’s a photo bombardment from a weekend trip to the Cumbrian town of Maryport. It feels like this year someone has forgotten to put the order in for a Summer.

Hope they have a good time, I hope they remember most of it. So that’s the day kicked off. […]
It was a busy day yesterday, a dive up to Newcastle and back, so today’s pace is a lot slower and easier.

I chose Chorley and one of my favourite eating […]
