Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

With all the covid 19 stuff, traveling anywhere soon isn't making much sense.

However, this looks like a neat place to go ...

York is great. Certain wall sections are closed for very long term repairs. Another example is Chester where my father lives. Whenever I visit with my two boys we always get up early one morning and do the full wall circuit.
Photobucket has now re-destroyed my pictures, so the first half of my collected works thread is no longer working again. To see my website version of the campaign thread, with fully functioning pictures, please go to https://bigsmallworlds.com/

Not a place you can visit at the moment, but interesting.

This looks like an interesting spot to see, but not sure I'll be going to such a place in this life time ...

Just saw that you liked Vineyards in Germany.
This is close to my place like 30 minutes, and its a great place to hike in spring when the weather still a little bit cold.
Cant find any good pictures from this year, so this is all I have
