Title: Wednesday - looking forward to this summer or next Post by: grahame on February 03, 2021, 12:37:13 Just a few pictures while we're not travelling ... from a year or two ago, and to be seen again in a year or two from now. Not a formal "where is this" competition as many of them are blindingly obvious, but comment and discussion welcome. Which of these do you want to get back to first??

Title: Re: Wednesday - looking forward to this summer or next Post by: CyclingSid on February 04, 2021, 07:06:22 At present the only thought is anywhere to get out of Reading. Getting a bit stir crazy with cycling round and round Reading.
Didn't do a Bedwyn to Swindon ride last year, so that has got to be a contender, as has Brockenhurst to Poole via Ringwood. And various shorter ones to work up to those. Title: Re: Wednesday - looking forward to this summer or next Post by: PhilWakely on February 04, 2021, 10:40:24 From a personal point of view..... whilst I am fed up with lockdown, I am willing to wait until it is 'guaranteed to be safe' to get out and travel again. I have a short break booked in Glenfinnan during October whilst the ladies in my household are hoping to be cruising in search of the Northern Lights at that time. If we can get out before than, all the better, but I am prepared to wait.

I find it very handy for my occasional trips into the city from Tiverton Parkway, occasionally supplemented by a Plusbus ticket for multiple destinations.

Title: Re: Wednesday - looking forward to this summer or next Post by: froome on February 04, 2021, 18:51:31 The photo of the seagull on the train roof reminds me of my visit to Mevagissey some years ago, when I saw a car parked at the harbour that was completely covered with gull shit. I was astonished as no others were like that, until I looked up the lamp post it was parked next to, and saw a gull with an evil grin perched on top.
The photo below that I assume is Nailsea and Backwell. If so, travelling through there at this time of year you can almost guarantee to see some good sized floods in the fields from there to Yatton, often being enjoyed by a range of birds, with the vista of the Mendips behind them. One of the many things I miss from making no train journeys. This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
