That's a lovely venue but the photo looks incredible - in the literal sense.

Is it a photoshop publicity shot I wondered, but no - just mooched online and it's genuine... WOW!!!!

:shock: glad I'm not a fisherman ( I'm I allowed to say fisherman now days? :lol: )They wouldn't catch much with that around !

Dan, did you see the picture in the Daily Mail today of the man being hugged by a huge lion? in a magical world I would love that! :D

Couldn't find the Daily Mail photo, but googled "man hugging lion" and got loads of pictures of nutters hugging and kissing lions.

I think the secret is to wait until after the lion has had a really big feed, but, still, personally I'd give it a miss.

Colour me sad :cry: :)

One question, Tom.

I saw a picture of Wasdale Head and it set me wondering.

Does your your Cherokee Chief** also cover the wiggly roads in The Lakes or do you have to stay on the straight ones?*

*Apologies to those unfamiliar with highways technical jargon.

Lovely pic Dan.
Wasdale's where Harry practised playing the bagpipes; the echo off the screes makes anyone sound good :D . On one occasion he and his "tutor" were stood playing against the screes and turned to see a line of cars stopped listening. One of the drivers even nipped over to ask for a request, which the tutor was happy to play and was rewarded with a Β£10 :lol:
