… Really nice to read these comments, Drake, AndyT and Stephen – I know you’ve all been visiting these pages for many years now, and it’s heartening to know that you still do, thanks for all your comments and contributions.

Your words are evocative too Stephen, thank you for your comment, and your remembering, really nice to read that you knew that path. Haven’t seen anyone swimming or sunbathing there recently! Maybe when things warm up a bit.

Wish I could turn your wonderful words,into a river of gold,but it was ever thus for author/writers.Must be named a Rawling or Cornwell,or a “Garrulous Geordie”tramping the Fifteen Streets to get rich on it!Over the years you have covered almost all of York’s non-touristy streets and locations,and have appreciated each and every one.
This piece on the Ouse ,with hill down to river,and top path with railing gave me goose bumps,remembering my1946 post war /waiting for School Certificate results,filling in time by tramping to The Ings,wth Cossie on,towel round neck,(via that top footpath,)and river swim/sun bathe before returning home “Commando Style”.Your words were evocative,and took me back there,filling in those hot sunny days,before engulfed by work responsibility’s,and economic necessities.thank you Lisa.
