This week end we had a long weekend break in Llandudno with Tracey’s parents.

I’m lucky enough to get invited on two separate golf trips each year, and the trip to Scotland I have been going on for maybe 18 years or so, I think. This years trip was again into the Scottish Borders and we based ourselves in the lovely town of Peebles. It’s well worth a visit

My 2023 project is all about telling the story of the changing face of the farm at Buckhurst which is in the hills just above Walmersley in Bury.

Now I’ll excuse you for thinking I’ve gone all management speak on you with a tile like this one. Don’t worry, im not getting all management speak on you, I’ll leave that for the day job. It’s not often I get asked to try to take some images that are themed, but this last weekend
