The English language takes another knock ...

I know spelling isn't everyone's strong point but I always think it's best when issuing instructions that you get it right.

I saw this handwritten note inside a changing room this afternoon [for the benefit of the staff presumably] and it just makes me smile ...

My apologies for not getting a sharper image. It was a quick shot just in case someone came back into the changing rooms ...

Tissington and the Tissington Trail

From the car park on the Tissington Trail I turned left down to Tissington pond where the mallards were soon waddling towards me in the hope of some titbits ...

Turning uphill a few yards later takes you between the local tearoom on your left and the church on your right. A church that has been open when I have cared to check ...



A little further up the gentle slope motorists can park their cars on the grassy verge provided they ensure their "bonnett" [rather than their boot] is nearest the wall.



Continue along the lane out of the village and a footpath continues towards the Tissington Trail.



In several places the path is walled on both sides.



The path reaches the Tissington Trail. Turning right, there are far reaching views to the north.









The low winter sun was scratching through the trees as I walked into the car park on the Trail.
