The good weather made an encore appearance this weekend just gone so I grabbed it by the throat and headed for the coast. I’d set my sights on Morecambe, get some fresh sea air and make a start on blowing away the Winter doldrums and cobwebs and as daylight is still nose diving around the six thirty mark there was little point in travelling too far. The journey is a […]
The days are inching longer with all the grace and elegance of a broken tooth being pulled. That said it’s still not “enjoyable” travelling weather, some days may be brighter but someone is still pressing the OFF switch about 6 pm. Anyway, as I’d see enough of the inside of my front door this week I decided to chance my luck with a train trip out along the North Wales […]
Okay, so picking up from the Kirkby Lonsdale entry. I landed back into Lancaster in the early evening. It was dark now though the rain had eased quite a bit. I needed the bus out to Morecambe and my B&B but as they are quite frequent I thought I’d take a walk around the celebrations for the switching on of the city’s Christmas lights, grab something to eat and a […]

Only the one hitch, to be organised I pre-booked my Chester to Cardiff ticket, opting to collect on the day. All […]
Time’s meat slicer is beginning to shave away at the days as the end of the year sneaks in on the quiet. I fancied a trip out, not too long, before the days turn into the annual “blink and you’ll miss them” short bursts of sunlight fighting for attention between great walls of murk. To that end I picked Bangor, the university town in North Wales as my destination, it’s […]
