I had not visited the UK for about 20 years but will be heading "over the pond" on November 27th to visit an old friend.  He & I joined the Toronto Police Force on the same day in December, 1971 & remained good friends since that day.  He returned to England after 35 years in Canada & I returned to beautiful Nova Scotia.  Unfortunately he has been diagnosed with a terminal illness so I have decided to visit him in West Yorkshire and be a part of his "surprise" 60th birthday celebration.  I thoroughly enjoyed my previous visits to Yorkshie & can't figure out for the life of me why it has taken about 20 years to get back again.  I came across this great site while doing a little research for my visit and have enjoyed the pictures of the towns & historical sites which I visited in the past.  Hopefully, I can get some good early winter scenes and share them with other members. 

Cheers,

Hugh
