A couple of days ago we were high in the Spanish Pyrenees. Amazing even when the weather isn’t perfect
Rocks, trees a big gully in the middle. It’s actually a close up of a mountain in the Pyrenees More trees, some turning orange and prone. On the side of a mountain on the Pyrenees Cloudy above the mountain and half way down above the trees. The Pyrenees This shows the location and altitude of 1290 metres at Bielsa in Spain

I’m off on holiday (at last), currently on a slow ferry to Spain. Took these earlier by the Devils Punchbowl where we had a picnic and then walked 😎 I’m going to post stuff and maybe blog while my time is my own!

Cambridge University should have known better, Fleet Street should have known better, the people hungrily absorbing every bit of news about it, making newsrooms feel like they had to keep going with it as a story, should have known better, horrible horrible horrible

I find that when I’m tired, a walk somewhere nice helps better than getting on the laptop. Maybe take a book for a break along the way xx
