Stonegate, York. by happypat

Stonegate, York.

Another quick photo between shopping yesterday.
As you can see York was very busy....lots of different accents to listen to!
A quick look at the Cathedral but I was too near for a decent photo....I have glimpses through narrow streets which I will put on at a later date or when I'm desperate!
By the way thank you for all your lovely messages re our trip on the train.....I have been very short of time lately & feel I have neglected 365 but it's much appreciated. Just my busy time at the moment but will all quieten down at the end of September/October depending on the weather!

A good clean up today ready for a very full house over this next long Bank Holiday weekend.

Three good things:
1. A fresh bunch of sweet peas on the kitchen table.
2. A walk down the High street in the sun & chatting in the local shops.
3. A suggestion from Harry to stop off in Australia on our way back from NZ....that is so surprising!
I love York, i was lucky to work there for a year, and live close by for 16 years. I think Ye Olde Starre Inne was the first pub on one of my first days out on the pop in 1984 when I went to Uni in Hull! Super shot, brings back memories.

I love the hustle and bustle in this street scene , Pat . I love these old narrow and pedestrianized streets -- so much to see --window shopping , people watching , and interesting buildings ! I deal place for a photographer looking for candid shots !!

Lovely city Pat. So glad you had such a good day.

Certainly looks busy. Look forward to your other shots
Best snap up Harry's offer of a Aus stop over. We love Sunshine Coast nth of Brisbane rather than gold Coast

Looks like a fabulous place to explore! Great image.

A very nice street scene and I am trying not to be envious of the sweet peas on your table!
August 26th, 2015  
You have captured the busy city life very well.

I can't believe that those words came out of Grandad's mouth!

I love reading your 3 good things

Agree about the sweet peas....

Is this the Cathedral I can just see over the top of the buildings? My sister visited here recently but she doesn't take photos so never saw it. Six hours in the train is a lot!

A lovely peek at York.

A lovely street scene and a Fav. I've never been to York although I have heard its very nice.

A nice shot of a very popular tourist street! - it was rather different today, with a delivery lorry hitting one of the shops, resulting in part of Stonegate being closed for several hours - see http://365project.org/fishers/365/2015-08-28
