Le Duc on the Road XX - Round Up & Pics from the Edge

 In the absence of anything else, as things are particularly busy chez le Duc... here's a roundup of recent walks and visits with the Duchesse. Now, you might think that Pandemic Lockdown would prohibit such frivolity. Nay, I say ...nay!

You shall not paaaaaaaas.

Needless to say, the Wargaming Blog Police will be on my case big style.

'Another blog post with no wargaming content? Are you serious Duc?


 ...and of course...the pile of stuff that I should be playing and posting grows ever larger. ho hum

You see a rough coastline ...I see where Vikings landed in the 12th century...

Part of the 'not so haunted' coastline

Good to see commanding site Project Managers - who probably think they're being ironic...by putting quotation marks around the wrong word, and the lack of punctuation, the exclusive use of Upper Case...oh the irony...

A monument to Lance Corporal Walter Newel and Captain W V Edwards - both engineering students who loved the area, but who were sadly killed in the 1st World War.

Skyline Drive - Belfast Lough

The Copse

Entrance to the Witch Caves...well, no, but part of Game of Thrones was filmed just up this road.

Looking north to Magee Island

The Nugget

Lighthouse on an eerie evening

The cliffs where hundreds (or thousands) of local residents were thrown off during the 1641 rebellion. This place is not haunted at all ...much.


No really, I believe him

The aforementioned cliff pathway, after being opened up again

Someone left a message on the fence when they could get no further. I'm sure I won't be tempted to leave a new message, each time I visit...

Looking south back down the rugged coastline



'So you're posting these fantastically competent, and absolutely luscious pictures of the environment, in order to hide the fact that you haven't been wargaming? Get outta here Duc!'
