We’re fortunate enough here in Hambleton District (North Yorkshire) to have lots of great heritage properties near us, the nearest being Benningborough Hall. We rarely visit, but have done more so in recent months, i suppose we’ve realised how handy it is and ultimately has lots of space for Dan to run about and enjoy the outdoors in such a beautiful setting. Of course it helps that it has a great cafe and a farmshop just outside that sell amazing cakes!

So anyway, here are some photos i took from last Sunday in some beautiful winter sun.

Sorry, new phone = trying out the WordPress (Android) app

So got myself an Android phone, a Samsung Galaxy S2 to be precise, it’s a real shift change for me having lived in Blackberry world for so long, but felt a change was necessary plus my screen had died and it was free upgrade time with Vodafone.

The verdict thus far, I love it! Some great features include:

- The screen is huge!
- The screen quality is amazing!
- It’s incredibly quick
- It has loads if great apps
- It’s cheaper than the iPhone
- The camera is excellent – 8 megapixels with HD video recording at 1080p.

So all in all an excellent phone, i’m still getting use to a very different way of using a smartphone and there’s loads more to explore but so far so very good.
