Your garden looks a wonderful place to put your feet up with a good book and a glass of something cold.

I was lucky with that shot Margaret. I could have waited ages for the man to be bowled.
I just set the camera on mutli shot, about 10 per second with one click, I focus on the batsman and keep one eye on the bowler and as his arm comes over to bowl press the shutter and hold it down. I usually manage to get at least one good action shot.
The two below were taken as I passed Todmorden Cricket ground. I just looked through the open gate and clicked away.
No. 3 A man asked for a photo of his dog so I obliged and emailed it to him (picture not dog)
No. 4 A fairground traction engine in the BCVM Leyland.
No. 5 My effort at artistic photography, not my cup o' tea.
No. 6 Big wheel on traction engine.
No. 7 A view I saw a lot in the interior mirror when I drove the coach, a Leyland Tiger Cub.
No. 8 Who remembers when poser lorry drivers had these on the cab roof.
no. 9 More clowning around with the camera this morning.
No. 10 The state of today's N.H.S.
Now they are uploaded I can get on with my breakfast.
I brewed coffee for Kate the gardener and got my basin out ready for my weetabix (other cereals are available in my cupboard). Then I put my teabag in the basin, wasted hot water and tea bag, start again Russell you plonker.
That's when I decided on Ribena instead of tea.
