Just back from a stroll with the dog.  What a lovely day. Pale blue sky, not a cloud to be seen, Strong sun and not a trace of wind.  Only sounds were the cries of the geese as they headed south and the water cascading over the stones in the small river. Temperature just above freezing.  What a totally peaceful scene. The views over the fields and woods are excellent

All this within a few minutes of home.

Ah the joys of living in the countryside ----so relaxing.

    We live in a stunningly beautiful country. Being a mitorhomer or caravaned enables us to visit places we may not otherwise.

    Write your comments here...Entertainment laid on for not a penny Kennine! - I agree- Caravanning has taken me to some stunningly beautiful places in the UK. Not lucky enough to to live in the countryside but  lucky enough to appreciate the beauty of this small island.

    Couldn't agree more. We got back from 2 weeks in Gran Canaria yesterday teatime. The drive up from Edinburgh was lovely the sun was shining the sky blue and the trees putting on quite a show, especially the ones North of the Inveralmond roundabout on the
    A9 quite amazing colours. We truely are blessed living in this country.

    Have to agree getting out for a walk whether from home or a pitch on site really makes me & the OH appreciate what we have in the countyside especially as the weather has been great today. We saw a flock of long tailed tits, a buzzard & 2 deer.

    Went for a walk in the Derwent valley near Hathersage, Derbyshire yesterday - we only did 6 miles of low level walking along the valley by the river but it was beautiful. Glorious weather, saw the season begin to change and...watched a kingfisher! Wow moment!

    Not a bad day in the North-Eastern Lakes. Lowish cloud on some of the Lakeland tops, especially Skiddaw, and rain & low cloud over the Cross Fell (Pennine) hills. However we had a good dry walk on Barton Fells.

    Write your comments here...the trouble the perpetrators see the toffs who sail with that expensive kit, what they don't see is the bloke who has retired or saved up and used his nest egg to buy his pride and joy. The amount of maintenance over the closed
    season that is lavished on the boat means nothing to them! Hope you didn't get caught up.

    I no longer have a yacht, although I have had a break-in on one I owned many years ago. I had another Email from the sailing club and the final count was 25 boats broken into.
