Since we have just three weeks left in the UK before embarking on Project Koru it would seem apt to share an image from a favourite local location. Curbar Edge is in the Peak District National Park and literally minutes from our home in Chesterfield. On a good day the view is glorious; you can just make out the fountain at Chatsworth House in this image. In wet and windy weather Curbar Edge is a wild place that makes you feel alive. We've seen the landscape purified by snow, and blushing with the purple of flowering heather. Once, on a clear night years ago, we lay on our backs on the ancient seabed (you can still see the ripples in the stone) and admired at the stars away from the lights of civilization. A special place where you can walk, talk, and think.
