Comment on Lake District Jigsaws by Robert Harding by David Murray

Yes, I’ve just checked myself on Amazon. That’s a pity. There appears to be just one left – of the Taj Mahal, but no Lake District scenes. They’ve clearly been very popular.

Sadly the Robert Harding jigsaws would seem to be unavailable..

Hi David,
It was very interesting reading your blog about the history of Bolton Abbey, it really is such a fantastic location in the heart of The Yorkshire Dales, i was down there myself a while back, but hoping to return soon.

Here is a link to a photo i taken when i visited Bolton Abbey in winter time,

Great site, great read.
Regards
Pete.

Comment on Hellgill Force – The Upper Eden Valley by David Murray

I’m just waiting for a day when the light and my availability coincide, then it’s back with the camera. When we moved to live in the Eden Valley earlier this year I knew we were coming to a beautiful area but to be honest, although we knew the Lake District well, I didn’t fully appreciate what a wealth of photogenic walking country there was going to be within a very few miles of home east of the M6.

Thanks for that, David. It certainly looks to be worth a visit.

Comment on Lake District Jigsaw Puzzles by David Murray

Hi Peter, Thanks for writing. The selection I’ve put up so far all come from the Robert Harding collection. He runs a substantial international travel photography business based in Berkshire. Whether all the photos are his own I don’t know; he also draws on a lot of other top quality travel photographers from around the world. I’m planning to show more in the next week or two, including other parts of the country (especially the North). As for your own map, I feel sure I came across a firm recently who will take a photo and make a good quality jigsaw. If I find it I’ll DM you on Twitter.

That’s a great idea. I’ve been after someone to make my new map into a jigsaw. I think people would enjoy putting it together and learning about the fells as they went. The photographs look great – who took them? The Wasdale view is a new slant on the old favourite. Best of look selling them – I may well be pushed to buy one . It’ll be a great Christmas present for someone.

I’ve just noticed that there are two names on the comment you sent. I think I replied to the wrong one. Maybe I should have said, “Certainly, that’s ok Lindsay.”
