For trips to the UK, always start with the Lake District.

Wait for me.

Check the walls.

Typical northern dwelling and evening fayre

It’ll need a big coil ‘oil…

Hallowed be thy game.

Scraping a pre-season 2-2 draw against the mighty Glossop North End.

The masses have braved Woodhead Pass for this feast of football.

Should probably take the kids to the smoke. St. Pancras has scrubbed up well.

Interesting use of space. But is it art? No, it’s just the way in to Tate Modern.

Nice doggy.

Crossing the river in 45 minutes. Feels like a millennium.

Is Liz back?

Just one more visit.

South Yorkshire.

It’s a state of mind.




Great pics! Used to bike in the Lake District on weekends when I lived up North!
That all looks so loverly!
BB: Fantastic cycling territory – I still remember hurtling down Hard Knott Pass during the 80s waving into car windows as I left them in the dust!
Dale: Hiking country par excellence. Our youngest kept us to the lower fells this year, but still marvellous.
Aw, these pictures make me miss England!
Looks like you all had a lovely time.
The countryside looks so… English! I love it. Green too, I bet you had enough rain
Great photos! We never made it to the Lake District but now it’s definitely on my list.
