Accrington Web - Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, another of those elastic walks, I went out for an hour, it ended up as two plus.

1. A blue carpet.
2. And a bit more.
3. The start of the wet bits.
4. Ransoms, and a wet bit.
5. Hold my coat mother, I'm going up.
6. As you know Marsh Marigolds grow in wet conditions,.............through the lace holes if you are interested.
7. I can see right up your trumpet.
8. Everywhere you look, colour from the herbage.
9. A little gem of a walk today.
10. I must drag myself away, I have to get home and strain the humus

4. More woods.
5. Wilson's Playing Field with Pendle Hill in the distance.
6. Back to the woods.
7. And to finish off, more woods.

I have happy memories of the Woodlands as I often got a "Get out of School free" card at junior school (St Mary's) as my best friend Andrea had terrible hayfever and this time of year she often got sent home and I had to accompany her -we lingered in the Woodlands on our way to her house despite the hayfever!! :D

Then there is the wooded area that runs around the outside of Wilson's Playing Field, you can walk all around the playing field keeping to the woods and end up back at the start point. So it can be a bigger walk than you would think at the start point.

Yesterday evening saw the start of the annual Literature/Music festival in Cremona which will be on all weekend. The weather stayed fine after a stormy week and the following are a series of photos showing the event. The festival is called Le Corde dell'anima -which means "The Chords of the Soul" and combines literature with music.

They`re a nightmare sometimes. Great fun mostly, watching them run around places like this sniffing out their toys you`ve hidden is just amazing, they`ve never missed one yet.

A friend of ours has a collie/springer X ( A sprollie) you can see the springer in him the way he runs through muddy ditches.

We`ve had one of them as well, was a great combination, collies are so clever, and springers will just go anywhere, no matter how muddy or prickly.
