Saturday Steps + Kinver Edge and The Rock Houses


Take a close look at the back of this house, its built into the sandstone rock!!
I'll show you more later.

We took a visit to Kinver Edge

A climb to the top


Just a small part of the view

Dad plonked me on the top of this thingy me bob


Come on I've had enough, lets get going


I met this mad five months old hound, called Bentley





Then this dog

Heck he was big, didn't get his name but his owner said he is a Leonberger!!
I thought that was a type of cheese!
Opps, mom just said the cheese I'm thinking of is Leerdammer, don't have a go mom I'm still learning 

Not heard of that model before, he was very friendly. Good job, I don't think I would have stood a chance!!


The Rock Houses
 Folks lived in them up until the 1950s










This is what's above them, big lumps of sandstone




They even had a rock house for there dogs!!


Ok enough of rocks, time for a pint.
We took a small detour on the way back to show you this place.


No mom's not photoshopped it.



Its The Crooked House!! the links to there web site.


If you ever get the chance to go, take a marble with you and put it on the bar!! it goes uphill!! 
I tell yea you don't need a drink, dad came out and he couldn't walk straight, its like one of them fun house's at the fair. Mom wouldn't go in, she says last time it made her feel sick!  


Happy walking wherever you are this weekend, hope the sun shines for you.
I'm slowly getting round to see you, so bear with me on that one, I'm still busy this end! Mom says thanks for the comments on her photos ; )

 See Yea George xxx

Saturday Steps and Sunday Morning


Sorry, Sorry its another bum shot, shame on you mom. I'm sure I turned around to come down them


Good grief mom is that the best you could do!!!

To make it worse I've been told I can't tell you where it is!!
Well not just yet, you see last Saturday we had to go on a secret mission, can you believe that, no really.
All I can say is, its to help Boomer, who's Boomer he's a dog, he found out about me from the owners of Delidale, you know the post that mom spat her dummy out.
Anyways I will be able to tell you soon.

Mom's only given me limited time on the laptop so I'll just tell you what we did on Sunday.


We stopped Saturday night at Granny and Granpops


A quick run from the back to the front of the house to show you the view.



That's a view to wake up to.

Granny was there but where was Granpops

Dougall was quick off the mark to tell me.
 Oh no he is in hospital having a new knee!!

Poor fella was missing his dad, it was written all over his face


He kept looking to see if he was coming home


So we just sat there and soaked up the sun



Granpops is fine, back at home and walking on two legs, I think Dougall will be happier this weekend 
So I can't just blame mom for having the laptop, as I was busy to.
She says I can come visiting sometime this week.
Have a Good Weekend

See Yea Soon George xxx
