True must have had strong legs thou I suspect, as I would have required a cable car etc to reach the top type of thing there .

Just turned this one up when looking for something else.

The crowds there are nothing like today, all seem to dress the same, today anything goes.

The church at the top is St Marys, the different headland to the left is because a block of flats were built in front.

Have walked nearly every part including castle many times.

Can be out on the moors in ten minutes, fishing sea and course along with fly within almost walking distance.

Just one thing wrong, too many visitors.

Selfish ?????.

yes misty, people took pride in their appearence them days, all the women nicely dressed with their long dresses and hats, and the men with hats and suits etc....all smartly turned out .

not like todays lot with jeans hanging halfway down their back side, and rips in the knees etc etc .......

shows how society has gone down hill .....and morals have declined .

Learnt along time ago here etc David never judge a person by their looks type of thing morals thou there easy to pick as such once certain misguided types open their mouth etc .

Typical examples of visitors.

They complain when a seagull steals their fish and chips and says we should control them, we have taken all their food  from the sea and trned them into scavengers.
What do the idiots  think they are going to find at the sea side lions and tigers.

In Peas Holme Park a real buetiful place a number of old dears some with walking frames etc; used to feed a flock of townies every day, summer and winter, their ownly bit of pleasure.

A toffee nose idiot who only  only visited once in a blue moon complained that she would not come again because the pigeons droppings had spoiled  the Band Stand roof.

The droppongs were actually from the sea gulls.

The Council had all the pigeons culled.

I and many others also used to feed them and no doubt one or too stock birds came about as a rsult.

Fortunately the pigeons are making a come back.

As for sea gulls, we have two on our roof every day, it's the sea  side not the jungle. 


 Regards.

true enough there knackered, never judge a book by its cover type of thing.........but people in those days were a different type of people, people with morals and a backbone , who took a pride in them selves and their country .

Could not agree more David.

Open any newspaper, full of filth.

Read the antics of so called humans in the criminal cases.

Lack of respect for both people and property abounds.

There has always been problems with humans but I thnk we
have  just about reached a limit.

Regards.

Place is filled with moaner & groaner types down here also Misty & mostly one has trouble finding logic in much of their general thinking these days on average I'm . Black lives matter mob were out & about here again yesterday ing poor as such . Should have all stopped home I say & had a good hard look in a mirror & would have seen who the main culprits were for all their so called issues, that they continually keep carrying on about down here .   & take care.
