    Depends.. I sold my house years ago, I live a wandering life on my boat, so moorings availability and the opportunities for maximum isolation play a part.

    Here she is in Newhaven



    And here on the River Fal in Cornwall ( above King Harry Ferry for the local lads.. )



    These Downland photos were taken on the Hampshire -West Sussex border when I was moored down West and walked that area a lot.





    But when I'm home in the UK, I'm never far from the Downland..

    Wonderfull photographs and eloquent verse to accompany, you dont have to be a genius to see the passion you have for the Downs

    Me too.
    I live on the North Downs. Much as I love the woodland, there is nothing quite as enjoyable and relaxing and meaningful for me than a wander atop the Downs.
    All those pictures of yours are just like here. I've seen and recognised them all. But the Kent side is better...
