Taken on the girlfriends front lawn last night. That’s not a euphemism.

Liked once for the photos. Mentally liked for getting the response in as I was thinking of an unsuitable comment :)

After the trouble with dodgy neighbours, I expected a more chavvy area.

You get dodgy neighbours everywhere, years ago when I was still living with Mum and Dad we lived in a very posh road. After our neighbours partner died she went mental. Couldn't stand me and my brother working on our cars in our large private driveway, which resulted in repeated complaints to my parents, her accusing my brother of being on drugs, erecting a fence on our side of the boundary (long legal battle which she lost) but she shot herself in the foot when she drove to the local nick to lodge a formal complaint after ranting at my brother who used a few choice words to tell her to go away. At the police station they thought she was drunk and breathalysed her resulting in a D&D conviction.

Parked up in Lydney Harbour parking to go for a walk. Came back to find this little beauty next to our car. Welding gloves on passenger seat...

Cr@p photo because it's:
- phone
- at night
- digital zoom
- from 2 miles away

Local castle floodlit red as part of the Red Alert industry day of action, highlighting the crisis the live events sector faces and the threat of job losses.

Generally the food here is pretty good. But their version of eggs florentine was a little odd - couldn't eat 90% of the soniach, not my favourite but worse when it goes splat when it hits the plate!!! :lol: :lol:

Always loved Thirlmere. And often did the route round the back. Is my brain playing tricks, or was that road closed at one time ?

Its been more or less closed for a while and this is the first time in a couple of years when I've been able to get along the length of it.
The road over the top of the dam is still closed as they are doing a load of work putting a watermain in from (I think) Ennerdale.
There's another road out onto the main one at that same end as the dam road though.
I drive past it on the other side (the main road) a fair bit but there's not many places to stop and this time I just thought I'd see how far I could get.
