The first set of pics is from the Lake District which is a couple of hours drive from homeand I do try and get there at least once a year, although this year I'm going twice!! :ahhh

The second set is from the outskirts of Bradford (Shipley), along the canal, which is a 2 minute walk from where my sister now lives :)
