Like many I fail to see the benefits HS2 will bring to this country and your link shows a tiny part of the destruction that is going to be caused to some quite stunning areas of this country.
Have always found though that a messed up walking route eventually leads to one discovering a even better one, good luck.

What a pity. I have enough from that speedy railway, really. We have also had many problems in a place going from Piedmont to France.

Hello Nick certainly a lovely shot indeed and sad really to see the destruction of the countryside to build HS2 infrastructure on this scale .. you will no doubt get a few HFF shots from the project but at what cost

Best wishes and stay safe Nick

Your link really brings home the awful destruction that is going on for the sake of half an hour saved between London and Birmingham. Because it's not right under our noses we don't think about it too much.
Glorious poppies and what looks like nipplewort against that summer sky. Enjoy your weekend dear Nick. I hope the rain stops for us all today. Yesterday it was continuous and we didn't manage to get out at all.

It will keep a load of otherwise unemployed people busy for years, it will annoy the hell out of those living hear the route and the end result will probably find that for some reason it takes even longer. All this at a time when we are discovering that working from home can be entirely practical..

I have my shortened walk route well established now, but it was lovely to have a figure of eight walk that would take me down to the canal and back again, taking about three hours. The new route is around 100 minutes
