LANCASTER. To The Coast.

Right, when last we spoke I was leaving Chorley and heading to Lancaster. Well I made it there, it was still raining by the way, and after a walk in the rain I decided to head out to Morecambe and sea the sea. It’s only a short journey out to Morecambe, I have a real affection for the place even though it’s looking a bit threadbare in places. Hopefully the […]

LANCASHIRE. Rainy Day Bus Trip.

Like the song says “The weather outside is frightful” and it is. That said the thought of sitting in the house watching it rain is not one that appeals so I’m off out on the bus with no real agenda to see where the winds of chance blow me too. I started off in Wigan, then to Chorley for a brunch stop, currently I’m on a bus to Preston. I’ll […]

Storms or no storms I wasn’t going to waste a day staring at the wallpaper. The day was a bit dull but by the time I reached Lancaster the sun was out and I was beginning to regret the big coat.

Looking at the weather I don’t think the usual photography will be high on the agenda but a ride out somewhere always provides some useful thinking time, so nowt wasted. And no doubt there will […]

SNAPSHOT! A Day In Cumbria.

A bit of a cobbled together post as it’s been a bit of an oddball day out on the railway. It started with a signal failure (failure of signals, not a really special failure) which meant that getting underway was a bit delayed by about half an hour. Nevertheless the train driver did his best to claw back some time and arrival in Carlisle wasn’t that much behind time. There […]

SNAPSHOT! And Then The Bus Died…..

Well it gets boring if everything goes completely according to plan. As I write this a deceased bus and it’s passengers are sat on the outskirts of Workington. Fear not though, help is on the way ( fingers crossed etc ) The day so far has slid along like a pack of ice skating mice. All the connections had fallen into place and the weather, while it hadn’t been scorchy […]
