The CC Trig Point bagger thread, now incorporating other interesting geographs

[Richard A Thackeray]

With regard to the above, I hope to get to;
An African country
A country on the North Sea coast
A city in Russia
The furthest place you can go/the apocalypse
A road that tells fibs about its length
A waterfall

Oh, & hopefully also a lovely curving railway viaduct, that's now a footpath/bridleway/cycle-route
That's where I have plans to take her.............

I managed 4 out of the 7, as I couldn't find a modern sign for the Apocalypse, or the North Sea Country
Ie; Worlds End (a farm, so it seems)
New Holland (also a farm)

The closest points to the waterfall (Goit Stock Falls) coincided with a rather heavy rain shower, so we didn't venture down the beck side paths.....

Now part of The Great Northern Trail

I've got this coming weekend off too, but, I have no idea what plans Senior Management has for me
Therefore there maybe/may not be additions to this thread

I know I won't get a lay-in (on 'early-turns' Mon - Fri), as daughter's working at her part-time job Sat/Sun, & starting at 06:00, so 'Dads Taxi' has been booked..............
