Vindolanda is the best place I have visited along Hadrian’s Wall. I would recommend that for a visit.

Yes much better to meet the bull whilst in a car. I am reminded of the last time I was in a field with cows…

The museum sounds so interesting. I’ve never been to Hadrian’s Wall although have often thought I would love to walk the whole length but now I am older a visit would suffice!

Scary story about the bull – better you were in a car than walking! I never used to mind walking through fields with cows but these days it is something I am not keen on!

The bulls were magnificent, but the middle of a road was not the best place for them

The part of Northumberland we visited is well worth a visit.

The clouds were amazing I think in the photo they are racing away from the sun!

Unpleasant for the bull and the driver if a road traffic accident took place!!

The clouds on this day were a delight. It is a pity we couldn’t stop the car as we drove through the countryside.

With regards to the bulls, luckily we were in a car which is faster than a bull

You should go back to Corbridge, the museum is excellent.

I think I would have been terrified driving past such a large bull in classic a mini!!!

Thanks for sharing the wonderful time you had. The bulls on the road would be scary to see too. The museum with the Roman artifacts must be so great to see. We need to take a vacation there one day. Great seeing the photos that you shared. Have a wonderful day.

Splendid ‘racing’ clouds there (top shot).

The bulls reminds me of the greenie rambler who was intently plodding his way across people’s fields oblivious to much around him, mutterin greenie mantras about global warming and how we are all dooomed. He became aware that he was in a field with a bull, which was snorting – probably just like your’s on the road. And he saw a farmer at a gate about the same distance from where he was, as was the bull. He shouted to the farmer, “Is that bull safe?” “Ooor aye” said the farmer leaning on the rail, “Oi reckon he’s safe enough. Don’t know about you though”.

bulls in the road were an accident waiting to happen

Indeed.
