Odd to have a summer in the Lower Rhymney Valley.   Caerphilly Cheese used to be made in Caerphilly.

York station and a Ferris Wheel.   Things change.
IMG_0562   IMG_0565
This way.   The museum station.
IMG_0566   IMG_0574
AS we were.   As the Japanese are.
IMG_0578   IMG_0581
A little bit of the Chunnel.   Old British Electric
IMG_0583   IMG_0594
Old British Diesel.   One of six.
IMG_0599   IMG_0603
Two more.   Deltic – 55002.
IMG_0606   IMG_0614
D6700 – Class 37   Not all engines move.

The Workshop.   And in storage.

And a sunny day in July 2013

My Gaff.   Spoons – The Punch Bowl.  Just across the road.
IMG_0519   IMG_0520
It really is a lovely city.   The rather wonderful York Brewery.
IMG_0522   IMG_0527
Times and stuff. Click on the picture to make it larger.   The tap room bar.
IMG_0534   IMG_0536
Ready for the malted barley.   The Cooper.
IMG_0537   IMG_0542
The finished product – York Gold.   York, the City.

And maybe Spoons too.

With her generator.   And intakes protected.
