Woke this morning, freezing cold and decided to get a picture or two for the New Year. Got a picture and a not very edifying one at that.
So plan 'B', a quick look at a few of the sights we've seen.
Bought myself Snagit for Christmas so maps should be better in future.
The following images are included because they reflect some of our best days. Some are new all have been reworked from the RAW files.
Captain Cook in Whitby, waiting for his Chinese takeaway!
Robin Hoods Bay.
One hundred foot overshot waterwheel in Weardale.
The train driver.........Having agreed to have her picture taken she went shy on me. So this was all I got.
Calder Idris........A touch on the damp side.
New Quay............Must include some sunny shots in Part two.
Emperor Dragonfly........Included simple because it took around five hours to get one in flight. Was almost ready to fetch the fly spray to the little devils.
Bristol floating dock.
Have a very, very happy year, my best wishes to you all.
Wondered what was on the menu, very nice too. did Cpt Cook ever get his Take away or did she go shy on him once she saw his chopsticks. wonder why they call them chopsticks?
ReplyDeletehave a safe journey for the rest of your travels and all the best for 2010.

Hello Adrian - so nice to see you! You have been so many places in 2009. In the short time I've been following you, I've greatly enjoyed your photos and write-ups.
ReplyDeleteI roared when I read the line about the fly spray. Whatever works eh? ;o)
I wish you and Molly nothing but the best in 2010!
Adrian, a fine selection mate.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed every minute reading about your travels, and seeing the pictures. I'm sure there are many people who would love to do what you are doing. I know I would.
All the very best to you and Molly for the New Year.
Penny, thank you, have a great year.
ReplyDeleteKeith cheers, will be the middle of next week before things are back to normal. Will have a wander up to the Lakes, had enough of the south west for a while.
Happy New Year, Adrian. May you have many more wonderful days wandering and exploring. I look forward to sharing your finds in 2010.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your photos-- even the ones you are unhappy with. Happy New Year Adrian.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year.
ReplyDeleteYou have certainly covered some ground in your travels so far. Your great photos are always enlivened by you comments. All the best to you and Molly for 2010 and I hope you manage to find somewhere without rain for a day or two.
ReplyDeletePauline, thank you, service will be back to normal during the next week.
ReplyDeleteTricia, You make sure to have a great year.
Jim, and to you and yours.
John, thanks, today could be the day, giving snow or sleet showers.
Hi Adrian. I hope you have a wonderful year with High Expectations (See Pauline's posting High Expectations) which come to fruition. After all you have a more varied and interesting life at the moment than most people do. And you provide your blogging pals with hours of good reading and viewsing as well.
ReplyDeleteHave a really good one, Adrian.
GB, thank you, despite the horrors of air travel I suspect I may be starting to feel a touch of envy. Internet connection here is a nightmare but have a longer extension for the dongle so will start to catch up.
