Day out to Sherwood Forest

[James691]

Had the day to myself so having just put Lola in for an MOT yesterday I decided to go for a spin.

Heading over Snake Pass passed Glossop.

Very nice. A big fan of trees, me. Looks like the weather held off as well.

Nice one James,

I didn't have you down as a tree hugger mate?

Second tree looked like a "Yew" (could be wrong) which is what they made the bows from cheers Spud

Yeah, the weather was not bad at all Happy to do a quick and simple 200 miler - some nice roads and a couple of pictures. I can think of worse ways to spend a day! :laugh:

There are some amazing old oaks in that place and Major Oak is the big daddy of the forest.

I loved the gift shop - as you have to now pay tax on Robin Hood souvenirs! _

Never judge a book by the cover mate, you know that

Not sure mate, could well be! There will be someone there in socks and open toe sandals that can confirm or correct
