Not at all Stephanie. It was only done for a giggle really, but even in a tongue in cheek thread I learn something new, so that's a good thing.......hijack it as much as you like!!

Thanks Andy. I am so good at hijacking threads - nearly as good as Jason and Krissy! Wink

Absolutely fine thanks, how are you? I've been to Reighton, near Bridlington today, which was nice, tomorow it looks like I will be going to Warwick, not too far from you.

Lovely shot Stephanie!  Going back---me thinks that Blandford Forum's Tourist Board hasn't promoted their town quite as much as they might have done. There's at least two villages we'll probably not see;  one has been uninhabited for decades while the other one is underwater; a sort of mini-Atlantis in Wiltshire.

Warwick is lovely Andy - the castle is fabulous but I fear a bit too touristy! Still I suppose you will be working but you might get some passing shots! I am OK thanks - a bit stressed at the moment. I have had a faze of everything breaking and work is getting busier!

Thanks Paul. I hadn't heard of Blandford Forum - I have only been to Wiltshire once!

I know Warwick well Stephanie, Debbie and I stop off there on the way to Portsmouth when I visit my mum and sister....it's just about halfway from South Cave. There's a great pub there too, we always have lunch and a coca cola. I seem to remember it being called the racehorse or similar.

I obviously don't know Blandford Forum very well, even though I've been there umpteen times....I can't remember if it's in Dorset or Wiltshire! Some courier I am!! lol

Think I've seen that pub when we've driven round Warwick if I'm thinking of the right place! I love Warwickshire and Worcestershire.

I'm going to do my chores now so good night! Safe journey tomorrow.
