The world according to Sarah

[Stottie Girl]

Beautiful picture. Please keep them coming.

I love the history. I went to Washington DC and Boston. The history there is great. My wife likes to do the ghost tours. Not that we're looking for ghosts but you get a lot of the dirty history

One of our local castles (Chillingham Castle) is actually the most haunted in Britain. You'll probably like that one. Not sure when I can get up there as it's quite far North (like about an hour and a bit)  but I've never actually been so I'm as interested as you about that one.

My mum grew up in the little village of Washington which is where George Washington's family are from. They were the big landowners at the time. Washington Old Hall (his ancestral home built 1183) is still there and you can go in. I could have a pop over there, though strictly speaking it's County Durham not Northumberland. Durham is a pretty epic place too mind. Washington became a "newtown" in the 1960's so it's ended up a huge place but the old village is still nestled in amongst it all.

I don't have anything close to that anywhere close to me, Sarah.

Thank you.

I am a massive history buff. And people who live in places where they have these things always amaze me. Thank you for sharing this. It will likely be in my dreams. I wish I could capture something like that.

You are more in the north than I am, where there was more of an attitude of "Build fortifications to protect from the heathen masses..." back when England and Scotland liked each other less than we do now.

You are the quintessential northern lass. And I find where you are utterly fascinating. Thank you for your eye on the world. <3
