This is the first post by the writer in what is likely to be a somewhat irregular commentary on travels at home and abroad.
As such, it not intended as a guide to travel, but rather a collection of notes on and images of encounters, scenes, sites and more. Indeed, anything of interest to the writer, or provokes their interest and curiosity.
So, to begin.
While spending a weekend near Lancaster in the north-west of England I was heading for Arnside at the head of Morecambe Bay and chanced upon the rescue of a couple who had ventured onto the sands to walk their dog and become trapped by the quicksands.
Fortunately for them, the coastguard is well versed in extracting people from the sands, so they were eventually hauled, rather ignominiously, much no doubt to their relief, and that of the watchers!
