Summertime Stroll

It was such a lovely warm day we decided to walk up to Lyme Park via the shortcut from the canal bridge (by Braidbar HQ).

We did have a bit of a laugh at Mr Nobhead on the blue narrowboat ... whose mooring is opposite  the water point.  He had filled up his water tank on the waterpoint and was totally oblivious to the 4 boats waiting either side of the bridge. 

Here he is walking to have a chat with another boat that was coming through the bridge!

When he finally decided to move (backwards) chaos ensued ...

It is a lovely walk up to Lyme Park and even nicer when the sun is shining ...

I love the over the wall stile for the humans, and through-the-wall for the doggies ...

There were a few volunteers rebuilding the dry wall and doing an amazing job too ...

Our first view of Lyme Park house ...

We had a coffee and nibbles at the old timber-yard, then carried on circumnavigating the house! 

The boys looking right regal on the lawn ...

The rear of the house was the most spectacular ...

Then it was time to head back to base ...

These sheep were running away from us when the one in front stopped suddenly....it wasn't very pleasant ...

This one had his head stuck in a bucket ...

By the time we got back to the van the boys were well and truly knackered and crashed out in the captains chairs ...


Whilst the boys were sleeping we headed off down to Aldi for a big shop the last before we head to Anglesey.

The last time we went to Anglesey it was shut, this time we are prepared!
