Back Home!


It was quite sad leaving our little cottage "The Nook" yesterday. We'd enjoyed our Derbyshire break hugely. In fact while there we had booked an extra night as we were enjoying ourselves so much. The place we stayed was Mill Farm Cottages at Barlow. The farm has devoloped a fly and coarse fishing centre with eight lakes in an idyllic valley just across the farm yard from the cottages. LB had fishing tuition on the first day and then got up early every morning to "thrash the water" as well as later in the day if we weren't out and about. Unfortunately he never did manage to catch anything but his casting is improving!

Our little one bedroom cottage was cosy and well equipped if a little old fashioned. The only downside was the fact that mobile phone reception started about 30 yards away across the farm yard and 3G a mile down the road. At least the yard was clean as the only animals were chickens, a horse, the fish and campers! So no sh*t! All my posts were therefore done on my phone while we were out and about hence being brief and to the point for once. Anyway I have now added text to the Bosworth Field photos, just in case you were wondering what that was all about!

To finish I have added a photo of the farm's horse as this is one of my first panning shots & I'm quite pleased with it

I love horses in motion. This is lovely.
