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 […]
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.

So the morning after my arrival in Morecambe with an uninvited guest by the name of Bert. Yes the stormy one. I had plans to go to the always entertaining Dickensian Christmas Festival in Ulverston, yes the Dickfest, however Bert had other plans.

The reason I’m sat with a pint ( don’t tell lies this is your second) is that my train was cancelled, so this is one of the more comfortable ways to wait for the next one to […]
Hello, it’s a sunny day up here in the north west of England and you find me on the top deck of a Stagecoach 555 bus. I’m heading up to the Lakes, possiblity Keswick, to grab some autumn sunshine and fresh air. The days are slowly shortening, the sunlight is running for cover just that little bit sooner each day, so it’s time to stock up on the day out […]
