A glorious weekend walking in the Radnorshire Hills 🌞💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #mountain #Cymru #Wales

Spring colour on my walks this week #SundayYellow #SevenonSunday #Springiscoming

It's a dismal day in #Malvern , so we abandoned our hike through the hills . I did spot this beautiful George IV postbox though. I'd never seen this lovely fluted design before 📮❤️ #postboxsaturday

Bronte fingerposting for Valentines Dauy ❤️. The sign for Top Withins, thought to be the inspiration for Wuthering Heights (or Arashi ga oka) . The helpful translation is for Japanese fans of Heathcliffe and Cathy #FingerpostFriday #Yorkshire

Heart of the village: the postbox. #postboxsaturday from the #Chilterns 📮

The days are getting longer, and there have been some beautiful sunsets on these cold February evenings 🧡 #sunset #SpringisComing

Yesterday was #WorldWetlandsDay. Better late than never, here's one of the beautiful wetlands of Greater #Manchester, Chat Moss #BlueMonday

The Ridgeway: huge views, ancient beech woods and red kites overhead. #Chilterns #FingerpostFriday #FootpathFriday

Glimpses of the coming #Spring on my walks this week #SundayYellow 💛

SItuated on Liverpool Rd #Manchester this blue postbox is 1 of only 2 that remain in the UK (the other is outside Windsor Castle ). It"s a relic from the early days of airmail. Pre- 1938, post boxes designated for airmail only were painted blue instead of red. #postboxsaturday

A fogbow in the Cadair Idrid range. Similar to a rainbow, this white or pale-colored arc appears when sunlight is refracted and reflected by tiny water droplets in a fog bank #BlueMonday #mountain #Wales #Cymru

Newcastle Way is a long distance walking route on public rights of way through the Borough of Newcastle under-Lyme. It links the Staffordshire Way at Mow Cop with the Shropshire Union Canal towpath at Market Drayton, a distance of approximately 40 km (25 miles)

A brilliant first trustee meeting of ‘25. We talked about fundraising & community events to international conferences & NICE approvals. Big topics, but always with one goal: making life better for our amazing #EGFR+ #lungcancer community! Look forward to sharing more & getting stuck in! 😊 #LCSM
