only been to Derbyshire a few times as a mate was a keeper on Bradfield moor. as for Scotland, the Borders is a lovely place
but you cannot beat good old Yorkshire !
definitely going to go back but not sure when . i think i know what you mean about the beat keeper
would you mind putting up a picture of your watercolour
Scottish Borders the Deer were near the holiday cottage we were in near Kelso and some of the dog ones are just below Berwick-upon-Tweed and some near Dunbar you can see Bass Rock
