I thought about writing down a full length travel diary, but that would be tiresome for both me and you. So, here are a great many photographs with captions. Bringing Pevsner into the twenty-first century.

Bowness-on-Solway. A quiet coastal town. I had taken the bus here from Carlisle. The only people i saw here were those in the pub, the few walkers who had taken the bus with me, and a father and son batting and bowling with a plastic cricket bat and ball.


A Bowness beverage dispenser.
The church in Bowness (St. Michael's). Norman.
The pub in Bowness, the King's Arms. The King being Edward I (the 'hammer of the Scots'), whose monument is some miles east of here. At the Arms I asked for a packet of crisps, the options: 'plain' or 'cheese'. No Five Spice & Orchid flavour on offer.
No ball games (no, not even cricket!)

Is this the greatest blog ever made? Cheers Ian for livening up my very dull saturday afternoon! Some top photos. A photo diary of your week in stoke must follow...
