On Saturday morning, following what has become my ritual of late went walking in County Durham. This week it was a circular walk, of about 6 miles, from Cassop, via Shadforth, from the OS Map. Shadforth is an unusual village for County Durham in my experience, in that it does not appear to have been a "pit village", and has the appearance of an English rural village, complete with village green etc. It is so unusual to find this sort of thing in County Durham, that I looked up the term "green village of county durham" in google (where else?), and was rewarded with a hit from the University of Illinois and an article on the subject by H. Thorpe. Goodness knows what the connection is.
Saturday evening was spent watching a DVD, Mr and Mrs Smith (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie), what a load of rubbish.
Sunday was spent lazing about, and "playing" on the computer.
