Important to keep the content going and new participators always welcome, in fact absolutely vital, so if you are a viewer who hasn't joined in before please do. Everyone has a camera of some sort on their phone, point and shoot, or something altogether more sophisticated.
There is no threshold of interestingness or photography excellence as I constantly prove with mine.
So todays image November 27th 2020 probably about 8.15 am ish.......Daisy's in Northumberland
Celebratory flurry needed because the more joiners-in the more entertaining the FCF

I was rather pleased with the loaf I baked this morning Kneading bread at 4am is a great warmup for an 11K run on a cold and frosty morning

A celebratory picture to warm things up a bit:
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Can you swivel your head through 360 degrees by any chance Jim?

Snap.....from nice places to stop off at thread back in 2014, 44806 in all its glory

Not forgetting the "on the doorstep" gems of Northumberland itself of course.
Yesterday it was North Yorkshire's turn, heading for Scarborough, but had a couple of stop-offs at Thirsk and Pickering.
I like Thirsk. This was our watering hole "Café Bliss". Well recommended. A quirk of the café (if you have a dog!) is that the Café owner asks if it is alright to give the dog a sausage, and a few moments later comes over with a little ceramic dish with a sausage cut up into treat sized morsels for the dog Thirsk also does one hour free parking right in the market place.
You can construct your own great drive anywhere in this region, but it would be a shame not to include Sutton Bank. Nice walks at the top, Gliders from the Yorkshire Gliding Club launching off the top...
Are there any steeper gradient signs than 25% in Britain? That's one-in-four in old money
Pickering has the North York Moors railway and is always worth a stop-off for us. No trace of a particulate filter here
I like the proud logo of British Railways on the Tender
By the time we got to Scarborough it was shut!

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
That Sutton Bank creeps up on you, you drive for miles along almost flat roads, turn the corner and the road looks almost vertical. Doesn't do your fuel consumption any good at all. A lorry got stuck on the first bend one time we were up.
There is a similar one on the A9 at Berridale, I'm told they have straightened it out a bit now but as we haven't been up this year not experienced it yet.

Re: Picture(s) of the day....
I think a fairly good bit of narrowing down would be the north of Scotland somewhere. Not many distinguishing features to go on though
Edit......except the name of your file Peter...

First bits right Neil. One of the loneliest roads, to the north ends at the north coast road.
