Mine is largely orange, although I have no Irish connections or propensity for everlasting argument.<br /><br />I thought somebody may pick up on that word, the trouble is it cannot be used too often. I remember reading Dennis Healy's autobiography and he used the word seminal over and over - writing should be a courtesy to the reader, not a source of disgruntlement.Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-28018358928944665912018-02-08T00:51:42.805+00:002018-02-08T00:51:42.805+00:00I walked this section with my daughter on our Silv...I walked this section with my daughter on our Silverdale to Keswick trip. There's a very fine view from somewhere just beyond Hag End. That's a corking hat that Katie is sporting. I'm pleased to see you using the word gruntled - I shall endeavour to emulate you in that regard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-54627010779277411072018-02-07T08:56:29.716+00:002018-02-07T08:56:29.716+00:00BC - Just let me know when you can cope with a bit...BC - Just let me know when you can cope with a bit of up.<br /><br />------------------------<br /><br />RR - I have Frost's poems and have delved to some extent - he is very popular and deservedly so.<br /><br />After all these years of blogging it has just dawned on me how much material I have wasted by using it as captions on the photos rather than milking it in more sophisticated terms within the body of the post. Woe is me again for not taking a photo of the petrol pump.<br /><br />----------------------<br /><br />Ruth - Yes. From the outset one's approach is totally different. A modest distance is chosen (I think I sickened my son and daughter off at an early age by overdoing it with them), and no thoughts of achieving some macho time/speed statistics, just a relaxed amble with time for photos, and a good stop for refreshments.<br /><br />When are you resuming with your project?Sir Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908756392825206914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365582190126322848.post-92215030825643239692018-02-07T06:42:54.369+00:002018-02-07T06:42:54.369+00:00Ah.

I’m dying for grandma walks, but as yet the one-and-only grandchild can’t even sit up unaided... so a while to wait.
