1991 Again…
Our philosophy is “If you see a hill, climb it” so at around 45 miles into the days run we decided to take a detour up Roseberry Topping…
These are a few from over the years we’ve gone over the water to Shetland for the huge Viking Festival, “Up Helly aa” we’ve not been the past few years due to first my smashed up leg, then my heart operation last November BUT, hopefully we’re on track to go this time. I’ve missed it.


That’s brilliant, Ms Rox !!
Fabulous photos Rox !

That’s like the ginger tom we took to Scotland !
He’s a she Bes, apparently rare.
Yes, but the one one we travelled with was a he.
Couldn’t resist!
My buddies Bernese Mountain dog, or at least one of them, she has two. She’s just bought a new digital camera and is experimenting.
I didn’t take this pic but thought you might like to see it .
The Pride of Portsmouth.
Saturday I went the see the lions at Portsmouth Dockyard.
It was a freebie it looked like the whole of the city turned out to see goodbye to The Pride the queue was mahoosive .
Glad I got there early.
The lions had been placed across Portsmouth & Southsea for the summer , with a spot the lion competition.
Before moving to their next destinations all 45 lion sculptures were reunited for a special display at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.
