Thanks Paul for the utube Hovis Ad.  If that young lad battled to get up the hill I don't think I would even start trying, lol.  Definitely not on my list of places I would live (unless they put in chair lifts!!)

Hi Christine (love the avatar), thanks for adding the gorgeous picture above, lovely place to sit with a glass of something refreshing! Do you have more pictures of Dorset which can be added here??  Or Devon or Cornwall which would add to the first whistle stop tour?? I really appreciate your participation in this thread and look forward to seeing you around more.

Just 5 mins away from Charminster is the charming village of Frampton, this place is what chocolate-box England is all about, hope you like this little cottage, i've got a couple more from there, so will post them soon. Thanks for getting me into this, it's great fun and great to chat to people who love England and great photographs.
