Thanks for returning the visit and joining up, I've bookmarked you for the moment. Likewise when I get time, I will investigate your pages further. You may find some friends on here !!.... check the labels for details.<br /><br />H... I am becoming a little attached to Yorkshire this year somehow. It seems to have happened in a variety of ways . Pleased you are interested what you see here. Capernwray..Yes<br /><br />Rafael Lam... Always great to see you whether on your page or over here on mine. Our travel pages are very different but we both seem to enjoy each others<br /><br />Mahon... Thanks for your comments Mahon. Your patience with my blog will be rewarded with the post coming soon when I manage to STOP and you will see what is inside my photographic eye !!<br /><br />Wind... I know I've already replied to most of this on your page but I hope I didn't set the mood for your Austrian trip with al this water and coldness. As I said above to Mahon, my photographic eye is in action soon. Thanks for your patience with me in my "all round" blog. I am trying to be more thoughtful in my choice of photograph in this difficult concept I have set myself.<br /><br />Phivos Nicolaides... Thanks for following and your comments. I can't recall yet if I'm officially following you or not yet but I have bookmarked you and will look up more of your old pages this week when I get time.J_on_tourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05469200077815953611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942077973453785319.post-56537408774681343652010-10-31T00:53:16.427+01:002010-10-31T00:53:16.427+01:00Jenny Freckles... It's quite a while ...Jenny Freckles... It's quite a while since I've been here too. It's quite a difficult place to get to in a day and back. The rain made the first shot worthwhile.... if not much else !!<br /><br />Cranberry morning... Thanks, I thought you might have been here but couldn't remember. It was a great possibility that the ropemakers could not have survived due to the location of the town and the demand for rope at that time. The James Herriot books were thought to have saved the industry as it brought a new breed of tourists into the area who wanted either souvenirs or just ordinary purchases from a day out. If people needed rope, it was good quality and a great variety of uses.<br />Unfortunately there was no time to visit the creamery. The last time I was here I remember being in a tight squeeze when visiting the factory shop as we were carried around the room !! I had to rotate around the room again nearer the counter for the free samples of cheese... Bus trips.. bah !! <br /><br />Farmchick... Always a pleasure bringing places like this to the attention of those who like to see what it's all about. Pleased you liked it, thanks.<br /><br />Sweet Virginia Breeze... Thanks for your nice comments, the first picture was a gift as I was passing. Nice to hear that you have read the James Herriot books.<br /><br />Adrian... Thanks for your comments. It's funny because I always try and see what postcards are available but it was difficult walking in a town with three blokes. Apart from a brief box of biscuits moment, no-one wanted to do any shopping !! I was the one dragging my feet taking the middle section of pictures in this post and ending up in a bookshop for an ordnance survey map and a mountain book of Yorkshire..... while the others waited in the car !!<br /><br />Lily Riani... Hi, If you feel like visiting, feel free.. but I'm not forcing it on anyone, I am just hoping that it is made real for you. I suppose I am passing on a subliminal message that there are more unusual places in the UK that require attention even if it is just looking in here.<br /><br />Inverness Daily photo... I was thinking about getting wet later, but the rest of the group expected me to take the lead...they must think I'm a hardened walker or something !!J_on_tourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05469200077815953611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942077973453785319.post-34793186513093583672010-10-28T20:28:33.360+01:002010-10-28T20:28:33.360+01:00Already following this beautiful blog!Already following this beautiful blog!Phivos Nicolaideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09149376242558001013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942077973453785319.post-37720116443656050112010-10-27T22:21:48.738+01:002010-10-27T22:21:48.738+01:00I am back in Romania!

The view from the bridge downstream of the one you stood on is better but not much. I always look at the postcards for inspiration there is none to be had here. Pleasant enough town though. Well done with shepherd and sheep I had several goes at them with a fraction of your success.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942077973453785319.post-82979353893608334912010-10-23T02:52:52.738+01:002010-10-23T02:52:52.738+01:00I love the first picture and the pictures of the s...I love the first picture and the pictures of the sculpture scene.

Interesting connection between the ropemaking and the Herriot books. I'd never heard that before. Great post. But we had better weather when we were there. Still cloudy, but I loved every minute! I know exactly where that first picture was taken. :-) Thanks for taking me back there.Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942077973453785319.post-400042019743178352010-10-22T22:00:24.164+01:002010-10-22T22:00:24.164+01:00Interesting post - it's a long time since I wa...Interesting post - it's a long time since I was in Hawes.
