WINDERMERE. A Pint Of Quirkiness.

A busy day out always benefits from a moment or two of quiet reflection.

Okay so I ate the croissant. Today’s expedition is to the Lake District, not got off to the most organized of starts, auto ticket machines are not the most straightforward things to use. Anyway sat sitting waiting for the next train north so that’s and excuse ( like I ever see need one ) for a coffee and a croissant.

On the last lap and still with time to spare, a pint beckoned me from the Loggerheads Pub. It would have been rude to ignore the generous hospitality.

Right, you join me as my train home speeds through the Scottish Borders under evening skies growing leadend with grey clouds. It’s been another great day out, catching up with my good mate Gareth the G-Man. To ease the getting about we used the Glasgow Subway ( mode of transport not a sandwich chain ) and travelled out to Partick in the west of the city. It’s an interesting stretch, […]

Okay, I’ve made it to Sheffield. The city is a favorite of mine so plans have been pencilled in for a visit, the Botanic Gardens, Kelhem Island etc. Today however I am destined elsewhere. https://www.welcometosheffield.co.uk/visit/ https://www.planetware.com/tourist-attractions-/sheffield-eng-sy-sh.htm https://www.alamy.com/portfolio/imagesbylachlan https://lachlan-main.pixels.com/shop/tshirts https://www.shutterstock.com/g/Lachlan1/sets/260639077

Trundling homeward now, just whittling away the minutes until the train arrives. As station buildings go Shrewsbury does have some class. Built by the Great Western Railway it has the imposing presence of an abbey. Right, electric scribbling over, the train is scuttling into the platform. Enjoy your evening all.
