Really nice set of pics - 5,6,7 and 8 are equal favourites for me.

[Margaret Pilkington]

These pics are from a 10km walk last Saturday.
I hope you enjoy the views.
1) St Michael s and All Angels church at Foulridge.
2) I hope you have got my best side.
3) Two trees on the top of the hill.
4) Foulridge Canal Tunnel.
5) Two bridges on the Canal.
6) 'Wot you lookin' at?
7) The Christmas Paddle....canoe club paddling to Salterforth for a pie and peas dinner.
8) Looking out over Lower Foulridge Reservoir.
9) The Boat club hut on the far side of the reservoir.......yes I walked all the way around the reservoir.
10) Same afternoon...hard to believe it but there had been a very heavy shower in between pictures.

Looks like it was a beautiful day but cold - the long walk will have warmed you no doubt Margaret! When did it snow? Love those cheeky sheep and the reflected sky in 10 is beautiful. What was happening on the water - some kind of sponsored paddle?

I am playing catch up on this thread.......had no internet for the past two weeks.

[Margaret Pilkington]

It was cold but I had my three layer jacket on and it kept me toasty warm......but I did get very wet and muddy at one point(walking around the reservoir there is no shelter at all).
It was the Canoe clubs Festive paddle.......not for charity...just for fun...and a pie and peas lunch.
It didn't snow, it just pelted down some hailstones.

Nice to see your out and about again Margaret and snapping again.It's not easy with all the heavy showers we have had.

[Margaret Pilkington]

yes Frank, having something different to snap is refreshing......different views, new walks.
I have more and I am hoping to be out and about again this weekend if the weather permits........and we are in another new location too......but I am not telling where it is......well, not for now anyway.

[Margaret Pilkington]

More from last Saturday.
1) Toad Hall......on the village green.
2) View from the bedroom window at Toad Hall.
3) The village well....no handle on the pump though.
4) About to get a wet bottom.
5) The canalside by the tunnel.
6) I suppose this is the sheep version of 'the pies have come'
7) Across the reservoir........with reflections...you know I like reflections.
8) Ilex...holly, with berries. Christmas isn't Christmas without holly.

Afternoon spent making pasta - 2 types of ravioli and Tagliatelle to finish off the left-over pasta. The small square ravioli have a braised beef filling and are for Xmas day - the larger ravioli have a butternut squash filling - all delicious and worth the effort. If I remember I will take photos of the finished dishes when I cook them

Don't know where it is (guess china or Russia from the buildings), but if I'd been there I'd have took more than 4 pics, if you've more get them uploaded.

Ah well it's one or 'tother, surprisingly, as beautiful as the whole area is and yes I wish I could have taken more pics I was in a rush to see 3 of my grandkids.
Hopefully I'll have more time over the next few days to discover and show you lots more sites.

I hope so to, looks a lovely place.
Obviously seeing family comes first.
