Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 20/06/2025Not my choice. Our history is closer to our neighbours to the north despite the Welsh name origins - which are actually Cumbric I think. #cumbria #flag 000
Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 02/06/2025It’s one of those simply stunning days in Kirkby Lonsdale today. This is Barbon Fell from the top of Mill Brow. #KirkbyLonsdale 020
Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 06/04/2025Yesterday in KL the Lune was about as low as it gets. No rain up in the Howgills #KirkbyLonsdale #Cumbria 020

Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Apparently I posted a copyrighted photo of a red squirrel in an earlier thread. So here’s a stock photo to allow me to make the point again that these little guys need our help in Cumbria #redsquirrel #cumbria 000
Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Gorgeous, crisp morning today. From Tantah, Peebles. #Peebles 000

Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 02/12/2024What are your favourite bridges? Here’s a starter. This is Priorsford Bridge over the Tweed at Peebles. For pedestrians only, paid for by public subscription and built by W. Inglis in 1905 110
Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Folklore says you’ll find a crock of gold at the end of a rainbow. In Kirkby Lonsdale it’s fish and chips. 120
Martin Leyland @strategicthinking.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Autumn at Ruskin’s View. One of my favourites, and a lift for the spirits every time. 050
