Anyone remember the old Barnsley Market Carousel?

I think you can still see it at the Experience Barnsey Museum?

Remember when this was a days entertainment?

A box of matches in your pocket and suddenly everyone wants to be your friend 😆

High Stones

High Stones this morning, at 548 metres (1,798 ft), is the highest point within the boundaries of South Yorkshire. Curlew calling in the distance.

Diversity

Great new line up of presenters on Strictly. Shame there’s no wheelchair one but they’ve got everything else covered ✅

Langsett this morning

Just up from Langsett on the edge of the Peak District.

Just discovered this is a subungual hematoma (or "hiker's toe"), caused by blood pooling under the nail from repeated trauma against your shoe, often during long downhills.

I did a hike yesterday from Penistone to Edale and then got the train back via Sheffield. Pretty much all trails from leaving the house and takes in some of my favourite places, including Langsett, Howden/Derwent reservoirs, and kinder. It really should be more of a famous route and I picked a glorious day for it. 20 miles in total and took 6.5 hours inc breaks, stopping off at the cafe at Derwent for a coffee and some food. Left house at 7am and was in Edale for 1:30 which was sooner than expected tbh but I do walk fast.

I’d probably change the route next time to take in more of kinder but really recommend this. Finished with a pint at the Rambler Inn while I waited for the rain home.
