Pour yourself a large one H and stir some memories.
Gordon Bennett!!!
Pensha Monument, High Force, Durham lanes, Bamborough Castle... - that's a great link Stu, it's a little early for a large one, (only just, though) but it didn't 'arf bring a tear to my eye.
I've got a feeling I know which way the conversation is going to turn tonight.
My partner in the saddle next month, Brian, an old school chum (who has a long history of dangerous and unstable behaviour, as well as a healthy disregard for personal safety), still lives up your way, just south of Berwick. He says his training is going well, and I couldn't think of a better place to get some miles in. He reckons the weathers been fantastic lately, which I take to mean 'the thermometer has just crept above freezing and visibility is more than ten feet'. (Mind you, when he says his training's going well, he probably means he's chased a few sheep, throttled a badger and been locked in the pub for 36 hours. And who am I to say that that's not Good Work?)
Have a great weekend up there Stu!
H
