The village of Aston le Walls
1. The village of Aston le Walls 
The village of Aston le Walls in Northamptonshire, UK, resting gently almost midway between the conurbations of Banbury and Daventry on the A361.  The M40 is within easy reach if required!

My wife and I moved here in September 2007 and found that the village community is quite unique.  

Why, because it stll retains that special community relationship that was present in English villages when I was a boy, but by general concensus has disappeared or at least diminished throughout the UK.

There are numerous evening entertainments, I know virtually everyone who lives here, if not by name, at least as nodding acquaintances and friendly greeters.

There is neither shop nor pub and a bus might come through now and then!  It is of no consequence because almost all you need can be found within a 10 mile radius.  

In the first few weeks of living here we frequently found vegetables left by our back door.  When I was incapacitated after 2 major operations, a neighbour mowed the lawn without being asked and the offer of help, if needed, is only a stones throw away.

The Salmon netters of Mudeford Bay
3. The Salmon netters of Mudeford Bay 

Some time ago I took a cycling holiday that included a long stopover in Christchurch, Dorset. One day I walked to Mudeford Bay on the off-chance of seeing the last Salmon fishers on the southern coastline. I was rewarded with a half day and many hundreds of images of these stalwart gentlemen of the sea. Whether it is due to over-fishing or pollution the fishermen realise that their time is nearly over.

These are the best images, in my opinion, from that day.

Please leave your comments good or otherwise in the guestbook.
