Came across this is a scrapyard in Hartlepool last month, the Brent Bravo rig being slowly recycled, dominates the landscape for miles around. Engineering masterpiece being deconstructed.  |

For the keen runners on the Oatcake there's always Race the Train. Just one of the start points this August. Very warm.

I was so excited in this toilet cubicle, I erected my tripod. The keyhole acted like a camera obscura, projecting the rock formations outside onto the wall:  |

It wouldn't let me post two photos, but here are those formations, from one of the most amazing places I've camped (Flores Island, Azores):  |

Neuschwanstein Castle, Bavaria (mad King Ludwig's place) - taken September 2018, thankfully you can't see the hordes of Japanese tourists ! Is this the one in this brief documentary? |

Yes that's the one. We had a guided tour round the place and the link with Hitler was unsurprisingly never mentioned ! |

 A right now photo. Currently reading this Christmas gift and its fantastic. 1971 Mark Bolan performing because the Kinks pulled out. Free in 72 David Bowie playing. Tickets during those years £5 or a few quid more. The backlash Michael received from the festival. The hard work hes put into it. Im just up to 1990. What a place what a story. What Musical history. Led Zeppelin playing in the background on my TV. Its nice being off work. Thank you Michael Emily. |

There's a couple of very good ones on the seafront and some great places to stay just outside town with views across and up the valley. The only thing with Race the Train weekend is that places tend to be booked up well in advance. It's become pretty popular on the running calendar apparently. |

Is it a racy pic love?  I've just had to sign back in. The screen was saying I was on line but I wasn't - I was in YT watching today's goals. (YAAAAAYYYYYYYY). No it isn't, it's THIS one. On the LHS. My AV. When it moves the lioness tries to get at the toddler & it makes a really nice change from the usual sugary stuff.  It’s always moved for me Murph. |
