Posted on March 27, 2011May 17, 2011 by Henry Elliss

I’m going to do a bit of a poll next week, to try to find who everyone’s favourite on-screen dads are – TV series, movies or even cartoons. I want to know who your favourites are – which are the dads who you wish were your own? Once I’ve got enough suggestions, I’ll do a…

A few photos from my slightly hair-raising morning A few photos from my slightly hair-raising morning walk. Some lovely sunrises, lots of ice on the canal and a couple of rivers and lakes that were quickly merging together, at the expense of the newly-laid track. At least my wellies stayed strong!
