England. The Lakes District. Part one.


Instead of spending a lot of time writing about our trip, I thought I would simply upload some photos that Susie has taken.

The landscape of the Lakes District is simply stunning. it is easy to understand why Beatrix Potter made it her home.


In the second part I will write about the Maalie court, fishing, glog and mulled wine. Not to mention English food.....


Please note:- the photos here are copyright. Should you want one please contact me.


Stay tuned for the next installment!

    A nice reminder of our Christmas! I don;t think you'd better say too much about the glog, mate...

    hello Anon! yes I am awake usually at 4am...

    Well Maalie the glog was very good...

    Now you all must be wondering why I am not in the desert... too wet.

    So its off to Dunnes Swamp or Coolah Tops National Park instead..

    Wow! The poor weather has just added to the intensity of the pictures and shows another dimension to the Lakes. Much better than the usual picture postcard shots of the area.

    Are you in the business of sending copies out by e-mail?
