I am re-posting these two photos that I took some time ago. Not because they any good but .................................................. .........................................
because they were two of my favorite places that have now, sadly, been lost to me.

The Willow Pool.

Hal's Haven.

This was on our willow tree, today, it is apparently a 'Puss Moth' caterpillar.

WOW what an exotic looking creature!! The adult moth at 2cm is almost a let down.

Just been out on my daily bike ride and this was coming through the Manchester ship canal locks at Latchford

I enjoy sitting watching the ships on the Manchester Ship Canal. You might be interested to read about the Ship you saw on its way up to Irlam to-day Sirius.

Went for a ride on my bike this morning and decided to follow the Manchester ship canal to the viaduct that carries the M6 over the canal. I found someone had gone out of there way to paint this on one of the bridge supports. See the photos attached.

It says "Harry Patch 1898 to 09 The Last Tommy RIP"

I love the idea of this urban memorial to one of our heroes. Let's hope that the powers that be clean off this graffiti in their normal 'slow to never' time scale.

Great panorama Cobby. I discovered ICE earlier this year and just can't believe how simple to use and effective it is, especially being a free offering from M$!
