I agree that England is not that bad, but hey, wouldn't you feel a lot happier had there been a beach, sea and not many people instead?

I have to say G, that is a lovely view!
There is a fab view of Sheffield from the bedroom window of my new house.....if you can call meadowhall and the ski slopes fab!!
i now appreciate the beauty in the English countryside like I didnt before....and look forward to lots of trips to Derbyshire (our fave haunt is Bakewell) over the coming months! that is if the buses run as well as they did last summer!!!!

just sitting out enjoying a bottle of champange looking at the rolling countryside and the weather is gorgeous

however, winter will not be like this and we will be still be like mice in the cage running round on that wheel and getting nowhere

so heres to a new life without the rose coloured specs on as troubles follow you wherever you are but having disposable income helps to soften the blow

Grayling & Jill, absolutely fabulous pics, its times when I see pics like those that it makes me impatient to move back there sooner (even though we have no plans to go back for the foreseeable future).

Thank you for posting them, they are gorgeous
