I don’t know how you feel about strawberry jam, but on the right slice of bread it is a wonderful guilty pleasure! Please don’t tell my Mum as she enjoys a piece of cake more, and may take offence to me singing the praises of the humble slice of bread with jam combination.

On this website I would rather be talking about this type of jam, but at the time of composing this blog and reflecting on yesterday around the Whaligoe Steps I feel I need to share these photographs…

I find myself battling my internal tensions and stress from Friday morning right through to Tuesday evening at the time of this post, as I live right in the eye of the storm so to speak. Visitors are welcome as I too love this location, but if I can inform any of you that at this current time and place you may be presented with inadequate access to the resident’s car parking facilities, plus no litter bins, dog waste bins, toilets, etc. then I feel I can offer a service.

It is good to talk.

Take care and be safe.

Below is an example of the busy times outside the front door. Thankfully the congestion shown in this edited video clip does not happen all the time, with many visitors to the Whaligoe Steps finding themselves able to negotiate the parking facilities without mounting the kerb, causing property damage or having any other accidents. (Check out earlier posts).

Nevertheless, as someone who may be considering seeing the Whaligoe Steps, please keep in mind that the access via the resident’s lane was not designed to cope with large amounts of traffic. Timing of your visit at the moment this blog was composed is a serious consideration to make in order to have a positive experience.

As always, take care and be safe.
