We had spent the early part of the week doing touristy things because in the summer we're busy doing other stuff. It was a bit cold at times and wet too, but we managed to dodge the showers for the most part. I got as far as Portland Bill in the last entry. We went to Swyre Head on wednesday but the visibility was rubbish for photo's as there was a lot of sea mist. So after a lunch in Corfe we headed off to Arne to see if there was anything better to see there. The only colourful shot was a pheasant by the side of the road.
Thursday wet and miserable so did mainly SSC membership stuff.
Friday saw us off to Poynton to visit Lou's dad. It was a long day starting with Dialysis at 7:30, a five hour drive, then to the working mans club in the evening. Over the weekend we took a drive to Buxton and visit the pavilion there. Drove back home along "the cat and fiddle", Englands most dangerous road. This runs across the Pennines between Macclesfield and Buxton. The road was closed the day before due to snow drifts. Unfortunately there was no scenery to see, as fog gave about 50metres visibility.
Sunday we visited Alderley Edge and saw Merlins Well. Locall egend goes that merlin has hidden King Arthur and the knights of the round table in the rocks and will bring them out of their slumber in time of great peril.You can see Merlins face carved in the rock above the well.
