Northumberland

Camping this wknd up by Hadrian's wall. The weather was apparently normal for summer in these parts but our pitch stayed almost mud free. I imagined the wall would be bigger but after 2000 years of people scavenging the stones i suppose It's surprising that any of it remains. The roman fort at housesteads was well worth a look, especially for those interested in latrines. The scenery all over northumberland is beautiful. Makes me want to live in the country. Not sure if the demand for IT personnel would keep a roof over my head though. Why whenever i go away for the wknd do i want to stay? I even like living amongst the Didsburati. Perhaps i should travel more. Perhaps i should stay where i am more and sort out the lounge of our flat? Anyway, this is the longest journey as a passenger I've done for years and i quite like it.
