Does the type of grass or breed of bovine make a difference in the final product ?? Perhaps a book deal and film could come of this. I could be so okay with that. :0D Thanks for stopping by - outstanding images, BTW. |

I wish I were in the UK right now. Swelter weather is here in Fla. 92 F predicted today. I am jealous of my 'snow bird' neighbors who sensibly leave the sunshine state at this time and live in the northern climes until Sept./October, when they come back to enjoy the holidays in 70 - 80 F weather. Still, mustn't grumble. LIFE IS GOOD !! have a great day John. |

Last night I was reviewing all of my photos from the UK, and there are dozens and dozens - with so many happy memories. The catch is, yours truly is not technically adroit and is finding her way to posting some of these photos here. Will work diligently on this task, and have a great weekend ! Sincerely, Chris |

However - I shall perservere and not let the chicken heart in me have the last cluck ! Thanks for the cheering on, John :0) |

I'm like you, a confirmed anglophile and would be ready to take the pond jump at a moment's notice. Keep coming around - lovely bunch of people here.

I find the same in all the Brits I've met (a few of them from this forum actually) when we were last over there in 2009. We're long overdue for another visit. Thanks for the kind words, John. |

Though my sister's best freind finsished off her nursing degree in St. Petersburg many years ago...then moved back here again. Look forward to seeing your pictures. |
