Sorry to do this to you, Chris, but the one I like best is Karin's shot of the tea table, clotted cream or not. It is in some way quintessentially English while being something you rarely see in England any more. I think the last time I saw anything like that for real was in my Granny's house in the early 1980s.
I love the shot of the flora at Packwood, too. Again, pure England. I wish I could have joined you at Hadrian's Wall - a wonderful place. I still have a vague wish, perhaps never to be fulfilled, of camping overnight there some time and getting up damn early to photograph it at dawn.
