Out & About. Saturday 4th March
« on: March 04, 2006, 15:23:50 »
Just a quick trip out as I was stuck in the house

'Small-Child' at my parents \:D/
SWMBO & in-laws down at a Rose growers near Wolverhampton \:D/ \:D/

Only had a quick nip around the Penistone area, & along Woodhead Pass (A628) then up HolmeMoss (A6024)

It was very nice, but quite a cool day. Woodhead Reservoir looked very nice from this viewpoint

Sadly the road was clear unlike it was on Friday 24th February , but the car-park at the top of 'the Moss' was packed  with everyone sledging on the northern flank.

Compare the car-park view pictured below with the one taken on Friday 24th February
Could be differant places??

I was just about to leave as a (new to me) Discovery 50th pulled in

What a lovely photograph Richard.
Such a beautiful view!!
The only view i have seen like that is just south of Cheltenham on the A419 looking west towards Wales.
Its a shame there's nothing like that around here.
Well, Box Hill in Surrey is suppose  :roll:

Picture of the lake that's nearest to me.
One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.

This must be one of the few years that Snake Pass hasn't suffered much in the way of closures

Forgot to add in the threads opening post. When I went through Penistone, I noticed my old Discovery was not on the forecourt :shock:

I wonder if it's passed further into the trade, or someone has bought it??

I'll be watching out for it.
