I’m [blank] — You Get Over It!
The Mrs and I saw these buses all around London during our visit in October.
I wondered about the drivers …
Here’s a story that begs the question.
What do you think?
Send me your thoughts — HERE; update coming soon.

Somewhere in the Kingdom (Pt 4, final)
Just a few more pics to finish out our recent trip to the UK in honor of 25 years.
 |
| Yes, it’s true. Some of us learned to “text” on these. These were in … |
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
| The Islay Woolen Mill. |
 |
| After 3 great days on Islay, it was time to struggle through the local airport … |
 |
| Boarding the flight back to the mainland … |
 |
| An added measure of security. |
 |
| So long Paps! |
 |
| Back to Edinburgh — where we found this guy, again, working for “nickles”. |
 |
| Haggis for the Mrs. |
 |
| Had a late lunch with expats from St Joseph’s — Don & Jen Walker. |
 |
| While the women shopped. |
 |
| Lots of artsy types trying to make a Pound in these parts … |
 |
| This guy plays a mean saw. |
 |
| One final glimpse … |
 |
| … of Edinburgh. On south to … |
 |
| Durham. |
 |
| Our youngest, while viewing these pics, said: |
 |
| “It looks like Harry Potter!” |
 |
| Upon repeating that statement to Hierodeacon Benedict recently … |
 |
| I learned that they did, indeed, use Durham Cathedral and Castle for scenes in HP! |
 |
| I believe there’s young Master Radcliffe now … |
 |
| Our nighttime view of the Cathedral from our B&B; window … |
 |
| And, the following morning. |
 |
| Zoom in. |
 |
| And, the Castle (which was closed during our visit). |
 |
| So ends the photo-blogging of our 25th; more to come on our 50th (soon). |

Somewhere in the Kingdom (Pt 3)
 |
| She’ll not like this pic, but 25 years suggests she’s patient and forgiving. |
 |
| On Sunday, October 14th, we headed out of the B&B; to explore Islay on foot. |
 |
| The Paps of Jura. |
 |
| This guy sports all new gear 🙂 |
 |
| One downside to off-season travel is reduced Visitor Hours … |
 |
| It was a fabulous hike out to Finlaggan … |
 |
| But we found the Visitor’s Center closed … |
 |
| Read about Finlaggan – HERE. |
 |
| Standing stone at Carragh Bhà n, said to mark the grave of Godred Crovan, King of the Isles |
 |
|
| Home of a Saint | . |
 |
| Final post from the Kingdom forthcoming … [Part One, Part Two.] |
