Changing blogging domain and site

Dear blogger friends, Lately, I had a few problems with the Blogger web site for my blog The Content Reader . I took this as a sign that I should finally create a web site of my own. I have been checking out other options, but could not get my act together. Finally, I have managed to create a basic web site with Wix, which I hope will be developed over time.  It has not been easy to find my way around. One thing one can say about Blogger is that it is easy to work with.  This site will no longer be updated Follow me to my new domain @  thecontentreader.com Hope to see you there.  Lisbeth @ The Content Reader

A social history in Haworth county

Another day with not knowing the weather. Grey skies, sunshine, rain and sunshine again. About every five minutes there is another kind of weather. We were rather lucky this morning for our outing to Keighley (from where the Brontës used to take their trains) and then on to Saltair for a little bit of English social history. The station in Haworth From Haworth to Keighly we went by an old diesel train. Quite fascinating to see the driver and other employees of the railway to go back to a time when trains and rails were handled manually. In Keighly we took a modern train three stops to Saltair. It is a Unesco world heritage since 2001. It was recognised for its international influence on town planning and an early example of a "model village".
