That's a fantastic shot. Where's it taken from?

Ah, very nice. I will have to add that to my list, scenery is gorgeous.

Re: Dudley's Rural Rides: England in the 1930s

Certainly.

I've always enjoyed my time in the countryside. It is very accessible compared to the American counterpart, everything is s o much closer together and the train service obviously is light years better. You can see a lot in a much shorter period of time. That said, there is a lot more I want to see.

I really missed out on not being able to spend some time in Berwick upon Tweed last time I was there though. I love the seaside up there.

True. I like it in the fall before it gets too arctic.
