Kings Cross Station - March 2009
Hitched a ride on a
convenient trolley
Wonder where it
will take me ? . . .
St Ives, near Bingley - June 2009
Draco dormiens
nunquam titillandus
Helmsley - March 2009
The Warriors of Helmsley Castle,
who stand guard at the drawbridge
Don't want to be on the
wrong side of these guys.
Prepare for take off.
Next stop Rievaulx!
Rievaulx Abbey - March 2009
A short rest, before
looking at . . .
. . . another place
in need of a roof!
Malham - September 2009
Walked to the bottom, to get water,
then over the top of the cove.
Glaisdale - August 2009
Beggars' Bridge,
the original way to cross the river
Gibraltar - September 2009
Climbing up to the Jews Gate, you get spectacular panoramic
views around the island. That's Africa in the distance!
One of many views of the harbour
from the balcony of the Rock Hotel
Cross the runway and you are in Spain.
Only a strip of Tarmac between.
How has anybody kept ownership from Spain,
when the peninsular is incapable of sustaining itself?
White Christmas - December 2009
So, there I was, planning an adventurous
end to the year, when I got a message .
. .
"Come to Yorkshire, we're going
to have 'A White Christmas'".
It sounded like some kind of curse,
"May all your Christmases be White"
So I rushed to the rescue.
This is not what I expected.
It's cold, it's wet,
and I'm sinking!
But it's not all bad . . . .
You can make things with
this crystalline substance
A chair
Snow Angel
Or throw yourself off the top of a hill, with only a piece of plastic for protection.
The possibilities are many . . . So long as you do not need to be anywhere in a hurry.
