In the Autumn of 2019 Mr and Mrs Drummerman retired to a cottage in North Northumberland.
Their housewarming party gave me the opportunity to have a pleasant night away from home, and a sparkling morning walk.
The area has been inhabited since the Stone Age and the ancients' Neolithic barrows and standing stones still watch over us.

Last
night I enjoyed the Drummermans' housewarming party.
Rather than drive home late, and to have the
choice to drink, I booked a bed in the Noble Lands in Wooler: which also meant
I could make a winter pilgrimage to Duddo Stones.
I had a
wonderful peaceful time, just me and the Stones and the quiet sounds of nature.
According to the car it was -3o.
Someone had been through this icy patch before me.
It was a quarter of an inch thick, and almost bore my weight.
