I saved these from a Parker's Guide. There's no date on the pages but I'm guessing they're about twenty years old; maybe a bit more.

This has to go down as one of the toughest photos I have ever captured. After walking down to the lighthouse in the pitch black, we sat, drank tea, and simply had our breath taken away by the light show in the sky!
A truly amazing experience to see :)
Sometimes family vacations can be tricky …
You can plan plenty of activities for the kids, but all they want to do is to stay in the hotel room and watch TV… - You drive hours and hours to a famous attraction and when you get there you find out that the kids are only interested in their mobile devices… When you return home you realize that the kids don't remember much about the new places you were visiting.
Well… maybe it never happens in your family… but in case it does – don't worry! you are not alone…
This was taken from the DAA/D+EG St Pancras-Manchester Piccadilly Peaks Express re-run tour on Saturday 15th October 1977. I am not 100% certain of the location but I believe we are passing 40109 looking east between Guide Bridge East & West Jcts with the wires on the connecting spur between Guide Bridge East & North Jcts visible on the left. If this is so then those bushes to the left of the 40 are above the northern portal of a tunnel on the Denton Jct-Stalybridge via Hooley Hill line that went beneath the east end of the stabling point, under the main line & emerged in the middle of the triangle to the left. I visited this square section tunnel in 1996 & found it still there but partially flooded. On a subsequent visit in 2009 almost all trace of the northern portal had vanished.

Beamish, the North of England Open Air Museum is an open-air museum located at Beamish, near the town of Stanley, County Durham, England. The museum's guiding principle is to preserve an example of everyday life in urban and rural North East England at the climax of industrialisation in the early 20th century.
Much of the restoration and interpretation is specific to the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, together with portions of countryside under the influence of industrial revolution in 1825. On its 350 acres (140 ha) estate it utilises a mixture of translocated, original and replica buildings; a huge collection of artifacts, working vehicles and equipment; as well as livestock and costumed interpreters.
WALNEY LIGHTHOUSE WAS BUILT IN 1790, AND POSITIONED AT HAWS POINT ON THE ISLAND. ITS PURPOSE WAS TO IMPROVE THE NAVIGATION OF THE RIVER LUNE AND ACT AS A GUIDE FOR CARGO SHIPS FROM THE WEST INDIES BOUND FOR THE GLASSON DOCKS. THE LIGHTHOUSE WAS NOT BUILT TO BENEFIT BARROW, AS IT WAS ONLY A SMALL FISHING COMMUNITY AT THIS TIME.
THE LIGHTHOUSE WAS BUILT OF STONE QUARRIED FROM OVERTON IN LANCASHIRE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE SITE BY SHIP. THE OCTAGONAL TOWER IS 70 FEET HIGH AND RESTS ON A CIRCULAR FOUNDATION 20 FEET 6 INCHES IN DIAMETER. THERE ARE 91 STEPS UP TO THE TOP OF THE LIGHTHOUSE. THE ORIGINAL LIGHT WAS AN ARGENT BURNER, A TYPE OF PARAFFIN LAMP.
IN 1909 AN ACETYLENE GASLIGHT SYSTEM WAS INSTALLED WHICH FLASHED AT ONE MINUTE INTERVALS. IN 1953 THIS WAS REPLACED WITH AN ELECTRIC LIGHT WHICH FLASHES AT 15 SECOND INTERVALS. THE NEW LIGHT IS 30 TIMES MORE POWERFUL (450,000 CANDLE POWER) AND HAS A RANGE OF 18 MILES COMPARED TO 13 MILES OF ITS GAS PREDECESSOR. THE ELECTRIC LIGHT WAS FIRST POWERED BY ITS OWN GENERATOR, NOT BEING CONNECTED TO THE NATIONAL GRID UNTIL 1969. THIS GUIDING LIGHT CAN EVEN BE SEEN FROM BLACKPOOL.
ATTACHED TO THE LIGHTHOUSE ARE TWO HOUSES IN WHICH THE KEEPER AND STAFF LIVE. THESE HOUSES WERE ORIGINALLY ONE HOUSE, WHICH WAS BUILT FOR THE FIRST FULL-TIME KEEPER. THE HOUSE WAS DIVIDED INTO TWO IN THE LATE 19TH CENTURY. AT THIS TIME THE LIGHTHOUSE’S ONLY WATER SOURCE CAME FROM THE RAIN AND THE ONLY LIGHTING CAME FROM CANDLES.
DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR, THE HOUSE WAS USED AS AN OFFICERS' MESS WHEN 170 SOLDIERS WERE ENCAMPED AT THE LIGHTHOUSE AS PART OF THE COASTAL DEFENCE NETWORK. IN 1946 14 PRISONERS OF WAR WERE MOVED INTO THE CAMP. THEY DID ODD JOBS AROUND THE LIGHTHOUSE IN RETURN FOR CIGARETTES AND FOOD. THE REMAINS OF THE BARRACKS ARE STILL VISIBLE.
TODAY THE LIGHTHOUSE IS RUN BY THE PORT OF LANCASTER COMMISSIONERS AND CONTAINS A RADIO BEACON FOR TRINITY HOUSE, FORMING A MAJOR LINK IN THE BRITISH COASTGUARD SYSTEM. ALTHOUGH THE LIGHTHOUSE IS NO LONGER OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, IT CAN BE VIEWED FROM THE OUTSIDE.
The lighthouse of Cape Palos is a simple building and 54 meter-high light-tower, first lit in 1865. Our guide gives us a brief run-down.

I discovered animals spirits about 1 year and a half ago. I "used" the eagle, the deer, the humming bird and most recently the horse and the tiger. I choosen the horse for this contest because of its sensibilities.
I'm think that all them come when we need them, every one has a thing to teatch us. I ove them all. :)
