Lyme Park, Nr. Buxton

My other half and I decided to go to Lyme Park...which was extremely expansive, I don't think you could go round it all in one day. Although there was no snow where we are, I was amazed how much snow there was at Lyme Park.....children were out sledging down the hills, memories ! It was just getting dusk, when, to our amazement we came across the Stags....what a truley wonderful sight, and I was so pleased I took an image before the light failed completely.....Wonderful day !

Halstead, Kent

I have just returned from a visit to see my son "down south" and was amazed to get these images at the back of his garden. I think they most definitely get a different weather forecast than we do up here !!I have now returned...... to leaveless tree's, and a fairly barron garden, although on the bright side.....the stinging nettles and weeds have all died off !
