Weekly(ish) Pic

[merrygold85]

I think I'll start a thread where I upload a recent pic that I like every now and again instead of threads full pics from one day/event. I'll try and do one per week. It might force me to do more They may be good, they may not. I'll just be posting ones that I like. Feel free to comment in any way, shape or form, and don't be afraid to insult, degrade or ridicule me. The more I am mocked, the better I will feel when no-one comments at all

I'll start with my favourite pic from Friday's outing to the Simonside Hills.

Cheers guys.

just one question, whats with the rock in the foreground with the hole in it. did it look man made? is it some neolithic toilet?

It didn't appear to be obviously man made, though it is a possibility as there are other circular stone carvings in the surrounding area. It was the roof of what was apparently a church (but is more like a tiny shelter which would fit 2, maybe 3 people, standing up) so there could easily have been neolithic activity there.

Had the parents over for the weekend so I took them up to Kielder Castle. We got to a spot with a great view over the area so I took a few pics and mashed them together in Photoshop. Doesn't really do it justice but here you go,

This week I've decided to put up 2 photos :O Shocking I know, but I just like them too much to not share. Was hoping to get to Big Waters nature reserve but Sunday buses are a nightmare so ended up have a walk up Jesmond Dene and what a day for it.

I think it's been two weekends that I haven't posted any pics. Was out and about both weeks, though not very bushy. Forgot my camera the first week on a trip to a waterfall somewhere out near where the south Tyne begins apparently. It was lovely too. I did remember to bring my camera last weekend when I took the missus to Edinburgh for her birthday, awww. She said we must go back soon and I said if I'm going back to Scotland it's for some wild camping. She was quiet for a time

Here are 2 Edinburgh shots to make up for 2 weekends.

Didn't get out this week. But I made some progress with Wonky's replacement.
