Well its time for my holiday in the UK for this year, for this week I’m in Northumberland, the northernmost county of England. In addition to being the most northerly it is also the most sparsely populated county in England and due to its historical proximity to Scotland the region plays host to many battlefields and castles, perfect for me.

Unfortunately right now its raining….yep pretty miserable out there, can’t see further than the end of our road. On the plus side though we have found ourselves in a rather nice cottage, incredibly spacious for three people, just look at the size of my room….

On the downside , much like during my holiday in Cornwall last year, I have a skylight, which means I can hear every single drop of rain which I’m sure will drive me mad. Hopefully though it will not rain all week, I will not go insane and I will be able to put out daily posts on my adventures here in the far north of the country. So expect more from me soon.
