Stroll 83 Haltwhistle to Hayden Bridge

The Stroll route is now completed to Haltwhistle. A good walk along the South Tyne and up into the hills around Allen Banks. The cattle are interested in the dog, not me.

 

Trains

 

Often an interesting train in the sidings as I walk over the footbridge to the Mount in York. The shiny one on the right is a 50 year old HST, used for measuring track movement. The one on the left is an express arriving from London Kings Cross.

Friends

Friends Paul and Coral were in York, so we met up with them and other friends at the cafe at York Art Gallery. We had a pretty joyous time.

 

Hob Moor

Autumn still feels a long way off on the beautiful Hob Moor

 

Skosh

One of the dishes from a meal at Skosh. Salmon.

 

Tea Time

Sunday tea, courtesy of Danielle. Tasted as good as it looked.

 

House Guests

Mark and Mandy came up for the weekend. We went to Skosh for lunch on the Saturday and had (as ever) a great meal and a great time.
