Roberts Rambles 6
It seemed more like a day in March than May, an overcast sky and a blustery cold wind. I covered the couple of miles to Kirk Bramwith along the road with only the odd vehicle passing me. It's best to jump on the verge when I hear one approaching. Some drivers are on the phone...
A plane flew overhead from the airport some five or six miles away. It's not a lot of good people taking precautions if they're still bringing folks into the country from far and wide...
The River Don was slightly higher than usual due to the recent rain and swirling edy's were everywhere.
This is the little Norman Church at Kirk Bramwith (Kirk being the Scottish name for church) It was built in the 14th century, and even gets a mention in the doomsday book. It also helps me to pace my runs....When I'm able to run that is....
Here's a little bit of information about the church...

These lakes are usually used for canoeing, however, a hardy friend of mine (in his late seventies) has regularly been seen swimming in here...
And finally I arrive at St Oswalds church where I asked God if I should submit to the vaccine due to pressure from the mob, he told me not to have the vaccine because the mob are wrong. Did you see what they did to my son.....
A good eight miles covered today, and still home in time for my dinner....

Like you say, lovely country. I just wish I had had a camera in those days.
Is the Haxey Hood still performed do you know?

loved seeing the Norman church OGF and reading about the history - have had a chequered career in church life myself - but to walk into such a long standing hallowed place and kneel and pray is for me an exalting experience - something holy - as if I have come a little closer!!thanks OGF - and God bless you even without your needle and he will
