A cold and sunny start here in Nottinghamshire, setting off home today via Nostell Priory, Wakefield. We're making use of our National Trust membership
The image captures the moment the ancient Egyptian obelisk, known as Cleopatra's Needle, was being loaded into its custom-built iron transport vessel in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1877, for its journey to London.
Good stuff, glad you enjoyed it. We've had dinner in the old wine cellar and now off to see the entertainment. A duo we've seen previously doing a Michael Ball and Alfie Boe tribute act, no idea what they're doing this evening but I'm sure it'll be worth watching.
Travelling to Leeds today to see "Miss Saigon" at the theatre. Its the matinee so we will get a bit of lunch in Leeds and tea before we come back. Bus to Skipton then train, open return so we can get any trains we want as the day pans out. My birthday present from Sally, should be good. :...

Message from Yiota.... Baby Artemis is feeding and sleeping well and she and Ash are fine. No need for me to do any worrying in that quarter!
Excellent
This is my latest great granddaughter, she's 6 weeks old now.
