It’s still winter, but the sun is out in #cumbria and I have seeds for delayed gratification.

Thank God for Mastodon and a European based social media company. If only people would wake up and use it. #fucktrump

Christmas coffee at More? Bakery in #Staveley #Cumbria

That’s our Christmas cheese sorted.

One of our December traditions has always been to light a candle each evening during Advent, counting down to Christmas Day. Here’s this year’s splendid effort.

I love Ireland at this time of year. Not managed to really capture it with my camera (too busy working), but even the view from my hotel bedroom window is lovely. #carrickonshannon #ireland #autumn #fall

If there’s a better bacon butty in Cumbria then I haven’t found it. This beauty is from More Bakery in Staveley. #Cumbria

Making the most of the Cumbrian sunshine on the last day of our holidays. Coffee alfresco at lovely Levens Hall.

A fine bank holiday Monday. A walk up to Cunswick Scar and a decent harvest of blackberries. #Westmorland #Cumbria
