A native of Grimsby but an islander for over 30 years now.

What a kind and positive person!

This is the first photo I uploaded to Google Maps six years ago and nearly 11K photos later, the total views have finally hit more than a billion. Unlike the super vloggers on YouTube we don’t get a button or plaque, but I’m still chuffed to bits. #googlemaps #localguides #localguidesconnect #milestone

The Himalayan Gardens at Minterne House, Minterne Magna in the Cerne Valley, Dorset. .

20 acres of wild woodland gardens, noted for the historic collection of Rhododendrons, Azaleas & Magnolias.

 

Between 1850 and 1947, Victorian plant hunters voyaged across the world, sponsored by amateur garden enthusiasts and brought countless new exotic species to English gardens; the seeds were shared around the sponsors who propagated this as a basis for exotic subtropical shrub gardens. Minterne Gardens were at the forefront of planting these newly introduced species.

Ingólfshöfði is a nature reserve that's home to thousands of nesting sea-birds, like puffins and great skuas. This birdwatching tour was taken with the group Local Guide, which hauls people across a massive black sand beach in a hay cart to reach the cliffs where the birds live.
