TIPTON’S TOUR

Warmer weather has finally arrived, but all of us will have to stay put for the foreseeable future. The best we can do is to take a virtual tour so here's a look back at the Newshound's mission to get Moseley B13 Magazine photographed in the remotest and strangest of places over the last few years (images originally appeared on the magazine's social media accounts) ... Tipton was pictured on Hadrian's Wall in 2016 and completed a three to four mile walk of the Roman Empire's most northerly frontier. She can also be seen sniffing around Housesteads Roman Fort which was one of the stops on the walk. The Newshound then got the magazine to a high peak overlooking Ullswater in Cumbria in 2017. Trekking around the Lake District was no problem for Tipton, although she did feel a little stalked by goats that kept popping up and giving her the evil eye. Last year's excursion was to the coast of West Kirby and the magazine got a coating of sand. The Newshound seemed a little surprised to see a horse crossing the beach on what was a beautiful morning in Merseyside. Where next for Tipton and the magazine? Tipton reading the magazine next to the Great Sphinx of Giza? Let's face it, a trip to Tyseley would seem exotic in the present time. -Mark Baxter
