And I thought Pigeons were the worst offenders for buildings poop Those Kittiwakes certainly come a close second peppiB.

Laurie - the footpaths are pressure hosed every 2 days. The smell is something else! Red listed species so worth it Thank you for the compliment. Old hands are a bit shaky to get a sharp image nowadays |

How lucky you are to have them nesting so close, even if they do pong a bit! Great photos PeppiB. |

Drove to Barnard Castle this morning and took these as a reminder for Eric of his youth Cecil Road (corner house is very familiar to me) ![]() ![]() ![]() Scar Top from the junction of Galgate and Horsemarket ![]() Thorngate ![]() ![]() ![]() The Kings Head Hotel, where Charles Dickens stayed whilst researching Nicholas Nickleby (and scene of my 21st party) ![]() Market Cross from The Bank ![]() It was good to see that the shop front of David Harper has been toned down to fit in with the area |

Thank you Peppi for taking those photos for me, every single one of them is familiar, nothing changes. Actually one area has. When I was very young, Bridgegate running parallel to the river had very old houses either side, The north side houses were actually built against the rockface underneath the castle walls they were dreadful slums and my parents discouraged me from going along there. They were all demolished. Of course these days there would have been an outcry and some expensive preservation and modernisation scheme would be put in place, I imagine. David Harper's shop is a bit after my time:o) Now I must really go to bed. Goodnight. |

Not much along the quay at the moment - still awaiting the return of the winter visitors - only a couple of curlew back at the moment. Just the usual black headed gulls and lesser black backed ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It has just dawned on me that the Cormorants have disappeared. None at all around now. Odd, but the fishermen will be pleased |
