Industrial History

I wasn’t sure about the contrails in this one, but I suppose they reinforce the diagonals of the winch structure.

A while since I put up a post – it’s a bit of a brain teaser trying to remember the way to do it!

They Walk Amongst Us

A trip to the Peak District prompted a few short countryside hikes, while giving me a chance to practice my photography. On the very first day, I took this photo – as a bit of a scene setter, so to speak. What I didn’t notice was this character in the background of this shot – nor did either of other two family members with me. How we missed it, I don’t know – perhaps we were using all our concentration on keeping our footing as it was very muddy and slippy under foot.

Merry Christmas

I couldn’t come up with some snow but these Robins always look a bit festive.

If you drink have a nip of something to warm you through, if not, take some extra time to make yourself a satisfying beverage just how you like it. And look after yourselves – remember, without you there’s no us.

All the best.
