    Some marvellous pics there, John. And of course you saved the best for last – the motorway turnoff that got you back to ’t right side of Pennines!
    All the best,

    Thanks very much for posting all the pictures, I can see what I miss every time I cross the border. Hopefully one day I'll have time to explore.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

    Great photos, they really whetted my appetite to get over and see some of the historical sights.

    Superb pics, John, you and Tom certainly crammed a lot into your two day trip. It was good to see you both again.

    Great pics. Seeing sights like these always makes me envy the long history to be explored in the "Old World". (200 years isn't so long when you see a church that's been on the same site for over 800.)
