The only place in the UK that I have seen red squirrels is on the I.O.W.

Well I am not telling any porkies. It was in our garden last week. We were in the Lodge at www.kirkennan cottages.co.uk last week

Would not fream of saying that you were telling porkies Frank.
I like watching Squirrels.
How very lucky you were to have one in your garden(however temporary your residence).
I am very envious.

It looks a beautiful place Frank.

It only came on one day and never returned, but we saw a few in the estate grounds.

I had a look on their website and it is an impressive place.
Could live there. Waking up to those views is something I would love to do.

A mooch around the old pit site on Martholme Lane, then a scoot down to the railway line, with a slight diversion down to the bluebells.

A dalliance around the top end of Dean Clough.

As always Dave your pictures are stunning, but number 7 is my favourite.
Love the butterfly and the sunny yellow of the dandelion.
More please

Will do Mrs P. I am trying to get back into my old routine.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Some pics from a weekend in the Lake District.

1. On the cliffs of Whitehaven.
2. Whitehaven again from the shore looking towards the harbour and where pic 1 was taken in the background.
3. Crummock Water.
4-7. Some very nice (if obscenely expensive) cars on the car park of Honister Slate Mine.
8. The best I could get with my gear, but the RSPB had some very high powered telescopes where you could clearly see an Osprey (follow the fence to where it meets the trees and up slightly).
9. Ullswater steamer.
10. Ullswater Lake.

Love number 10...it gives the sense of a huge sky and the solitude.
I have never been a fan of the lake district. It has always rained when I have gone...and that puts me off.
It reminds me a lot of Wales...that is not a nice place to be when the mist comes down either....I am sure the Lake district is beautiful when the sun shines...it just never has for me.

I have to say, iI have missed your old routine Dave.
