These two were taken near the top of their respective jumps, so perhaps not actively 'going up' anymore...

Going up.

I still like that shot, brilliant humour and so simple, it also goes against lots of the rules that people churn out.

Thank you zx9 It was very much a grab shot, as you can imagine. One I won't delete.

Fondly known as the Lobster pots, a rather odd lift used to take people across the upper part of the village and on to the lifts proper. I don't know if it is still there but I hope it is.

My father-in-law's favourite expression, adopted by his son.  
By the way, I'm envious of your toes so nicely spaced. Not scrunched up like mine!

I am not sure why the phrase sprang to mind, Up the wooden hill to Bedfordshire. Not something I heard growing up or even used for my children, probably picked it up from TV or possibly during post student house share, I don't know.

The toes are probably a combination of genetics and as a boy not trying to force my feet into fashionable shoes, it is a sometimes heated conversation I have with Steph from time to time.

Taken on Crete in 2010. The guy was wandering up the beach trying to sell the kites, I did not see anyone buy them probably because it was an all inclusive hotel and you would not take money to the beach when all drink and food at the beach bar was free.
