Today in Pictures, another day of bedlam down at the Cut.

1. It is BargeArama, this barge has just gone through Foster Swing Bridge.
2. Another going in the other direction waits to go through.
3. The boat waiting at the bridge has just bounced off the centre of the structure, and is making no attempt to open the bridge, the bloke waiting had to head to the bridge with the handle.
4. This barge is sporting the flag of New Zealand, I wonder if he has come all this way, I don't think he goes home for dinner.
5. Leaving the mayhem behind, I start to enjoy the tranquillity.
6. Its a swing bridge, that doesn't swing or bridge, will re-position and take another photo now its quiet.
7. BLOOD AND SAND its all kicking off again.
8. This guy was going so fast he was doing water wheelies.
9. Just time for a bit of photographic faffing.
10. Barges a GO-GO has now passed, so its back to bird song, the wind breathing through the flowers, the gentle rustle of the grasses rubbing together,......and the distant lullaby of a pneumatic drill digging up Burnley Road, bliss.
