| Okay so since we got good feedback for the idea of travelling away somewhere for a day out and photographs its on to stage 2! Deciding where to go.
So what i need is suggestions, ideally with maybe a google map screenshot showing the route and preferably with pictures of the views we may encounter on the way!
Whacha got! | |

| Middleton Teasdale is a very nice place and a lush drive haven't been in a slammed car though so unsure how good it would be for all us lol | |

| How far are we planning? I was thinking, just a rough draft but meet in Barnard castle, head up to Middleton in Teesdale, down to Brough, blast the A66 to Penrith and head up to Alston. Plus the Hartside Cafe is a nice place to grab a bite to eat, good views would make for some decent pics I'll try and get a route on google maps to show the route. | |

| If you have a look at orth yorkshire moors ther is a place called GREAT AYTON. head from there to little ayton, easby, kildale then thru to common dale then castleton and thru to hutton-le-hole. The road is amazing and the veiw is second to non in my opinion. would put up pics from google maps but im on my phone or why not go to the scotish border, Carter Bar. now all of us parkd up t the border would make for a great pic plus the veiw is amazing up there and the roads are lowered friendly lmao plus the Catcleugh Resevour is would get some great pics too just a few ideas | |
