A very slippery bridge in a beautiful area. I did try to walk over it, but was holding onto the rails and sliding everywhere, so turned back, and we went over by car.

They were all shivering under the bridge, Nick. I did try to trip-trap over here, but failed. Too slippery.

Handy for exchanges of spies.

I think there might have been some exchanges between Owain Glyndŵr and Henry IV , Steve. ;-)

Steve has been watching too many films and Nick has got too immersed in Wagner. Imho!
But a very nice shot!
Best wishes, Andy

You could be right, about Stave, Andy, but Nick has just been reading too many Norwegian fairy tales. ;-)

Terrific capture!

Thank you, William. The light proved to be a bit difficult here. Everything appeared a bit too blue.

One can see how slippery the wooden planks must have been! At least the attempt cost you only 20p;-)

Amelia ^club has replied to Gudrun ^club

The lady toll keeper did warn me about walking across, Gudrun, and knew we were going to be crossing here by car, so I didn't get charged the 20p. It was worth crossing here for 70p as it cuts a corner off the route. ;-)

Lovely old bridge leading into the sunshine.

Amelia ^club has replied to Jean

I did try walking back across the bridge from the other side too, Jean, as the sun had been on it for about an hour, but it was still quite dangerous. We'll go again next time we visit this area.

It's beautiful Amelia! At first glance I thought it was Norway. Very wise to travel over by car I think :) Cheers, Rosa.

Amelia ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne ^club

It does resemble Norway a bit Rosa, you're right. The cottage on the right as well as the toll booth is for sale and if you own it you collect the tolls. ;-)
Cheers, Amelia

That´s a great view into the sun..and I guess it was a good idea to take the car ;)
Kind greetings Amelia!

Amelia ^club has replied to Tanja - Loughcrew ^club

Thank you, Tanja. The back-lighting was too strong for the exposure I used, but we didn't have a lot of time to stay here, so I had to be content with what this photo. ;-)

Perhaps if you'd worn ice skates..................?
Lovely view Amelia.

I think skis might have been better, Dave. I'm not much good with ice skates. ;-)

Nice perspective and lead-in over the bridge Amelia. It looks like there hasn't been much traffic before you.

7 years ago.

Amelia ^club has replied to Graham Chance ^club

I think most people bypass this and keep to the main roads to save 70p for the toll, Graham. ;-)

Graham Chance ^club has replied to Amelia ^club

You can't say that - it will put people off buying it! ;-)

It looks like the bridge is completely made of wood, so its clear that its the rain (or fog) that makes it slippery.

Very interesting your PiP showing the "price list".

7 years ago.

Amelia ^club has replied to volker_hmbg ^club

It was very frosty here, Reinhard, and the wooden surface of the bridge was treacherous. It would probably be bad in wet weather too.

Lovely capture on a very cold looking day Amelia.

It certainly was chilly on this side of the bridge, Toger, but when we reached the coast then woolly hats came off. ;-)

Gee that looks cold! No wonder you were sliding around on the frost.

Amelia ^club has replied to tiabunna ^club

I have to say that I was surprised just hoiw slippery the bridge was, George. It didn't look to bad when I tried and failed to get across on foot.

you can feel the chill in that cold blue air

It's been beautiful weather this Christmas and New Year, though, hasn't it?

Amelia ^club has replied to Rabbitroundtheworld

We have had some really beautiful weather over Christmas and new year, Rabbit, and i notice that you got a good sun tan in St.Andrews. ;-)

I used to get sunburnt there every summer,
