Track to Scarcliffe Grange

You don't have to be mad to blog here but it helps! 

As a member of the Geograph project I have a personal map that I call my red blob. Over the past twelve years my red blob has grown with every image I have captured in a different 1km square. Now I have collected 6402  different squares and submitted 15812 photographs in total. Below you can see just a section of my coverage map. As you will see, at the edges of the red blob it all becomes rather raggedy.

Yesterday, I set out with my faithful companion Tonto Clint to target seven squares I had not yet secured. Often such squares are in awkward locations. Perhaps there's no public footpath or no road or maybe I just missed them on earlier visits to that area. Before setting out I had some map study and pre-planning to do.

It was a lovely day and, with Clint's kind assistance, I managed to accomplish my vital mission. Before heading home, I called into the former mining village of Creswell where I purchased a late lunch - a portion of golden chips (American: fries) and a battered sausage with a can of Diet Coke from "Trawler's Catch" on Elmton Road. It was naughty nourishing and well, nice.

The accompanying pictures were all taken yesterday.
