Love Wins

Love wins ministries is a charity that helps homeless people out in Raleigh, North Carolina. I was introduced to the organisation when their Pastor gave a talk to Revolution church in NYC

They are there, on the frontline doing what Jesus would have done

Katy Kopycat

Katy Kopycat was toy of the year in 1971 but until I read Schotts Almanac 2006 I had never heard of it. Basically it was a doll that copied your writing, there is very little about her on the Internet (nothing on ebay or wikipedia) and yet she sold loads? How can something so very popular be so forgotten?

Sodor

The wonderful island of Sodor, home of Thomas the tank engine and his mates! Invented by the Rev Awdry to cheer up his son after a dose of measles.

Junction 22 M1

If you are travelling on the M1 there is a cornucopia of really nice country parks off Juntion 22 which I can really recommend for a picnic. Its seems odd that this part of Leicestershire should be so rugged but there you go.

Altar Stones (watch out for the longhorn cattle)

Hill Hole Quarry (Sadly I cannot find many links but it is totally awesome, check out the stunning views from the Toposcope, you can see all the way to the Rugby Aerials, 25 miles away

Billa Barra hill, lovely views is that Birmingham in the distance though?

Bardon hill Extraordinary place , you can see from Wales to Lincolnshire from this Marilyn

So stop off, its either this or being ripped off at Leicester Forest East services
