I love Howards' Way, I've got the box set and watch it heaps of times. They don't make great series like that one anymore sadly.

Re: Caption Competition
Thank you so much, Julie, and Pete, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading the other captions too.
It's over to Ring o' Bells for the next caption, which I'll judge in a week or so.
