You could go on as half time entertainment !

Re: Today in pictures
 

Had heard that there was the model exposition in the sports center -one of Hyndburn Mayor's engagements for today along with a gardening show in Great Harwood and the Bash allotments show. Nice to see the badminton hall again -used to play there many a moon ago -looks like it was a really good display -great attention to detail in the models. Used to go through Lime Street Station very often as a student!

Re: Today in pictures
 

An interesting set of pictures, the more you look at them the more you see.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Took me while this morning to go through the thread to catch up -many "likes" pressed. Hope to have some of my own ready to post soon from my recent hols in the UK. So sorry I didn't pick up about the walk along Bash lines with Jen, Dave and Gremlin in time -nice to see some pics of you all at last though. All looking really well. I especially liked seeing how Dave gets down to take his close-ups of funghi. Perhaps the next group walk could involve some water so we could see him in his favourite medium too ;) :D

Re: Today in pictures
 

Photos from a recent trip to Manchester -I loved the mix of old and new buildings. Just a taste of what I saw -from the Corn Exchange to the Royal Exchange Theatre, Piccadilly and some very old pubs -moved to the center from elsewhere, to the town hall and the John Rylands Library among others. Was very impressed haven't been back to Manchester since 1982!

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures,there is every possibility that today I will get my liberty bodice wet, which makes the rubber buttons go all out of shape.

1. Thats the general direction, Churn Clough Reservoir, I tend to be drawn to water.
2. You can see the "Ossy"turbines from here.
3. With my back to the hill you can see Dean Clough just to the right in the distance.
4. Churn Clough Reservoir, we are taking a big arc to get there.
5. You can just see a band of rain travelling in this direction, perhaps a onesie was not a good idea.
6. Why is it sunny over there and about to open up here?
7. Here you can see the rain falling on Huncoat, to the left of that is Hapton Scouts, and the quarry.
8. That band of rain just passed over, and now I have moist places.
9. I bet fairies live up there.
10. Back up the hill, it put my lamps out, so a short stop whilst my lungs catch up with my body.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Looks like there were some very threatening skies there today Dave!

Re: Today in pictures
 

Nice mix of old and new buildings

Re: Today in pictures
 

It threatened all the time but opened up towards the end, so finished with moist flip flops

Re: Today in pictures
 

I have plans to go up to Stocks reservoir soon Dianne, there is enough water there to keep Dave happy for months, he would be in his glory getting his gusset, corsets and any other unmentionable he cares to wear wet/damp.
I don't mind company but would rather not have a dog in the car and Dave always has Bob with him.

if anybody fancies a ride out with me send me a PM.
I would probably be out about two hours and the trips on me.

Re: Today in pictures
 

What time are you going to Rammy Jen?
I am hoping to catch the ten AM train from Rawtenstall.
I am going to the Transport show at the East Lancs Railway Museum at Bury.
It's easy to park at Rawtenstall and use one of the complimentary rail tickets we used to get when June had the guide dog puppies.

I have to take my rollers out and brush my golden locks, wipe off my face cream and apply my make up. Then find a freshly washed and iron shirt and don my best gillie suit. I must try to look beautiful in case some sneaky girl with a dog takes my picture and puts it on the Web.

Re: Today in pictures
 

What a lovely old church - I'd love to scamper around that graveyard.

Re: Today in pictures
 

we are catching the 11.05 from rawtenstall .. its steam you see gremlin ... and no I wont have a dog wi me today ... ive got something far worse ... the spugster .... (that's his suggestion by the way) :D

Re: Today in pictures
 

I am sat on the train at Rammy now, waiting to depart for Bury.
I knew the first train was diesel but I want to get to Bury before its too busy.
Your train has just pulled in and is hauled by Sapper the little ex army tank loco.
Grab a photo for me if you can.

No.9 Bond Bug.
No.10 Signs from the old stations and signal boxes.

Plenty photos where they came from and not a shillelagh in sight to take a picture of me in my Sunday best.

1. Autumn berries, and possibly things you can eat.

Re: Today in pictures

Re: Today in pictures
 

Did you sit on my car bonnet to take photograph number 2 Jen?

I took this through my windscreen while I sat eating a banana and drinking my Fortisip.

Re: Today in pictures
 

The reflection was accidental Turtle. Someone helped the man to get on the penny farthing but he just sort of stopped and hopped off it.

Anyway a few more from Bury Station for the lovers of proper cars from yesteryear.

No.1 Austin 18 from about 1937
No.2 Standard ten
No.3 Big Austin Healey, my dream car.
No.4 Daimler Dart. Pretty rare nowadays.
No.5 Red car, someone help me out, what is it?
No.6 Morris 8 probably pre war.
No.7 Morris 8 post war.
No.8 DMU, headboard says "Dyce" it's a long way from home. It was the next train to Rawtenstall but had to go to Heywood first so being a bit weary I got on it and had a longer ride. All on a complimentary ticket June had from the Guide Dog days.
No.9 Old advertising board and rail-side distance marker to somewhere.

Re: Today in pictures
 

That's a glorious sunflower! Love the trains and cars too.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I know what you mean about the Austin Healey. I saw one this summer in red and black. I was mightily impressed, until the owner drove away, grinding the gears as he did so! Poor car.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Took me ages to catch up, looks like you had a nice walk last week.
Here`s a few from my hols.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Spugs is looking owd jen.:D suits the blue jacket though.;)

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, started as a walk to find signs of Autumn, turned into a walk on the wet side.

1. Within sight of the Dunkenhalgh Hotel.
2. Heading for the river.
3. Found it, slight Autumn colour.
4. The bank here is constantly being washed away, so the shape is never the same on this walk.
5. If you are not past the lace holes, you are not doing it properly.
6. A bit of colour here.
7. Here we go again.
8. You might as well keep wading through it.
9. The Motorway is just through the trees.
10. Another section of the banking that moves with the water flow.

Re: Today in pictures
 

A selection of photos taken in Holden Clough and of the nursery gardens -another nice place to visit with a great cafe for eating out.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Holden Clough has changed so much I dont recognise it, when I went there it was just a wood shed, and the setup was more like an allotment.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, up one side and down the other.

1. The Wharf.

Re: Today in pictures
 

It really is lovely now and thriving - the son took over and has won all sorts of awards and grants. He won some BBC thing which has given him a lot of pubblicity. Worth a visit.
Some of the locals aren't too happy about the amount of traffic passing through -got talking to one lady (who lived in the second house I photographed). It is giving quite a lot of employment to locals though which is a saving grace to these tiny places which might just die out or become commuter belts - you can't have it both ways!

Re: Today in pictures

A selection of photos taken at Brougham Hall near Penrith and the ruins of Brougham castle.Both places belonged to Lady Anne Clifford who also owned Skipton castle as featured recently in the TV series The White Queen. Slipped in one rare photo of me, camera in hand and juggling with my scarf, taken by my friend Andrea.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Last set of pics from my hols.
1-5. Some fish & coral.
6. Tiran island.
7 & 8. Fun in the waterpark.
9. That`s just coloured sand poured into a container and poked with a stick to make a picture.
10. Another towel animal.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Nice pictures, I do like the arrow slit one.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Now thats just showing off, under water snaps, and it takes a moist gusset to an all new level.

That water shoot shot is a cracker.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Thanks DM, the underwater pics were just a disposable, cost £12 + developing, then scanned at work today. OK in shallow water, the pics taken in deeper water didn`t come out too good.
The slides were great fun.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in pictures, a day when wet socks could not be avoided.

1. Start point, they will soon remove that signal box as they streamline the service.
2. Not much floral colour at the moment, a Trefoil.
3. Things you could eat, I'm not saying you should, but you could, although I don't know if Clover is edible.
4. Chamomile.
5. Common Toadflax.
6. Looking back down the site, and time to head back.
7. Sea Aster.
8. Although not the best shot of droplets I have taken, but one of the first droplet snaps I took was of a Clover leaf, and this was a slippy slide into the world of wet socks and moist gussets.
9. I know its wet, we are going home soon.
10. A spiders trap in a Burnet.

Re: Today in pictures
 

A look round Little Salkeld Watermill which is fully restored and is still milling organic flour and cereals in the traditional way. The miller very kindly posed while working for my photos! We bought some of the flour he milled and packed -it was still warm from the friction of the millstones -made some fantastic pizza! Lots of interesting corners for photographers too -so well worth a visit if you're ever up in Cumbria. The Watermill | Little Salkeld Watermill

Re: Today in pictures
 

I love the brightly painted doors and window shutters in contrast to the stone walls. Great shots!

Re: Today in pictures
 

Then it truly was a lucky clover, for we've enjoyed the results of all your wet moments since :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

If you go onto the link I've posted about the place there is an excellent film which shows you all about the people who took the mill on and restored it -they chose the colours! They also show how it all works interspersed with other details about the history of the place, their products and the people who work there. Worth watching -you can see just how noisy the machinery is!

Re: Today in pictures
 

A great location, the cogs and gears are very interesting.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, a perimeter walk around Rhyddings Park.

Re: Today in pictures
 

You really have an eye for the funghi... (I think that rhymes too -that's if you read it as fun -guy ;) !)

Re: Today in pictures
 

I like to get low and on the ground.

and take some snaps of what Ive found.

I lie among the leaves all green and russet.

trouble is I wet my gusset.

Re: Today in pictures
 

The film is definitely worth watching - I can recommend it!

Re: Today in pictures
 

A selection of early morning shots at the Pooley Bridge end of Lake Ullswater. It started misty and the lake was very still.

Re: Today in pictures

Re: Today in pictures
 

Number 1 is my favourite, one to print and frame.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, bit of a clog and a pump day, not much time, forgot my glasses, only had my compact camera so couldn't see the settings, anyway here is the best of a bad bunch.

1. Its always good to start prostrate in wet grass.
2. Very striking colour.
3. This was constructed over the Winter, it is now maturing.
4. What can I say.
5. Must get back before it rains again.
6. The Sensory Garden and Mercer House.
7. Thats the last of those.
8. These were recently placed in the Sensory Garden, thats all I know.
9. These were all I could find, there might be more, or not, as the case may be.

Re: Today in pictures
 

one of these is not really a today .. its a yesterday many moons ago .. 1983 in fact ... and walked past today .. and its gone ... the place where I worked .. from October 1983 to October 1985 every weekend ...

Re: Today in pictures
 

It was there when we went for our walk, whats going up in the space.

Re: Today in pictures
 

No.7 is really nice - captures a drop just about to let go.

Re: Today in pictures
 

maccydees bought it for the land for extra car parking space for them ....

Re: Today in pictures
 

It wasn't apparent until I got it on the computer, mind you that happens a lot. I load stuff onto the computer and see things that I didn't at the time.

I noticed it is used for that now on an unofficial basis.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Your making me jealous with your reflection shots Great Pics

Re: Today in pictures
 

not just maccydees .. its also the unofficial overflow for the offices across the road .. well it was until theyd fenced it off ... I wondered why the cars had appeared at the entrance to the offices and a couple more had appeared on the avenue ... never mind elsewhere ... :D

Re: Today in pictures
 

Never been here before, not the nicest walk we`ve ever been on. Very uneven stoney ground and couldn`t let the dogs off much cos of all the livestock.:rolleyes:
1. On the way up the hill.
2. I think that`s probably Darwen tower.
3. Any Accy webbers in there?
4. One of the few places I could thet them have a run.
5. Why can`t all wind farms be so well hidden.
6. This was supposed to be part of a panoramic pic, but wouldn`t stitch to the previos pic.
7. A Lancs Lass & Duke the Dingle.
8. Better get a move on.
9. Don`t like the look of them horns, i`ll find another way.
10. Another of the windfarm.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Where did you set off from on this walk?

Re: Today in pictures
 

Ram pub in Cliviger. Up Thieveley Pike, towards Todmorden then across the road and back again.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Yeh there are qite a lot of sheep around there.We have to keep Max on his lead

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures a walk in the sun, its not going to last.

1. Start point, the res. from the bottom end.
2. Selfheal carpeting the footpath.
3. A clump of Montbretia growing wild.
4. Past the reservoir and up the feeder stream.(wet socks)
5. One of the smaller wet bits that join the main wet bit.
6. Top of the walk, a storm is brewing.
7. They used to sacrifice virgins here............no they didnt..........they couldn't find any.
8. Here we are again, face down in the dirt.
9. No point worrying when you are already dirty.
10. A Cranesbill Geranium with the Nettle Tap Moth having a feed on stuff.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Nice pics again DM, only seen that place from a distance. meant to get a closer look but never got round to it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Its an interesting walk, and the area behind the reservoir is a fungi photographers dream, there must be over 20 different types, although on first glance you would not notice them. The waterfall most of the time is a tame affair, but when there has been heavy rain it get noisy and spectacular amounts of water come over that edge. The stream that feeds Jackhouse Reservoir. 4. of 5 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! have had to post a link as my ration for today has been used up.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Just out of interest, what would happen if you were to post another set of pics after you`ve used up your ration for the day? And when was this ration set and by whom? I haven`t seen anything in the site rules about posting too many pics in one day, but maybe I missed it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

If one could imagine the perfect forest scene (with wet bits), 5&6 hit it spot on. As for the fungi - such interesting forms. I tried photographing pumpkins in the field today, but I wimped out on getting down and dirty. I've got to work on that! :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

Dont get down without first working up to it, try bending over, then on one knee, then then you have got the hang of it, flat out. Then you have to try it in various wet conditions, but do it in secluded spots first.

Re: Today in pictures
 

A selection of photos from a day out at Patterdale Country show. Events with sheep trials, judging of breeds, dog show and also judging of beautiful hand-made shepherd's crooks. Was a great day out and my god-daughter Ana with Patch, a tri-colour American Cocker Spaniel, won the dog show. Her best friends Sophie and Charlotte with Fizz, a beagle won another category so they were all happy and spent the £3 prize on some treats for the dogs! All the girls and the 2 dogs in the photo with the judge -a Cumbria TV presenter. The boy with the carved "trout" stick had made it himself! Unfortunately we missed the Cumberland wrestling -will be for next year!

Re: Today in pictures
 

I had arranged to go to the Lorry show at the Museum at Leyland today and as it is outside I wasn't looking forward to wandering around in the rain.
I took an old Olympus camera to save ruining one of my better ones and managed one or two outside shots, the others were taken inside the museum.

No.1 Old Morris A.A, van.
No.2 Little Morris eight, Don Frazer inside owns it and also the Holmeswood coaches you see around.
No.3 I drove a few of these Bedford RL's in the army.
No.4 Even Rolls Royce's get wet.
No.5 Time to go inside now, it's too wet. Albion, motto sure as the sunrise, see the sunrays on the radiator.
No.6 I saw these in the workshop, lain undiscovered for years and just been cleaned up, they sell for over twenty quid on ebay.
No.7 The seat in the actual Popemobile, used when he visited Lancashire.
N0.8 You don't see many of these on the streets nowadays.
N0.9 Hello ducky.
No.10 My old mate Clifford grabbed me to dance infront of the organ with him, we drew a crowd and finished up with a few more people in the line up.

Not the best day out taking photos but it was better than sitting at home watching the rain run down the windows.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Tee Hee! You make it sound like fun.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Great set of photos - nice reflections in No.6

Re: Today in pictures
 

Looks like a great day out amidst some stunning scenery. You captured a nice intense facial expression on the young lady in No.5

Re: Today in pictures
 

It is a beautiful spot, just outside Glennridding on Lake Ullswater - the fells lead over to Helvellyn -there was also a fell race which went over there...was a great day out -lots to see:)

Re: Today in pictures
 

Looks like an interesting day out -did you know about the connection between the Earl of Lonsdale and the AA -he had a fleet of yellow cars which is why they chose that colour! Love the pic of you dancing -good to see you having such a great time! :)

I like them very much Maxthecollie, wish I was back up that way again.

The weather has been too bad for me to get out with the camera but I did manage one shot with the camera poking through the patio doors.
I didn't use a tripod either so the beer must be weak tonight.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today in Pictures, a walk on the wild side.

1. Its raining over there, how do I know......its raining here as well.
2. Pendle is often in the distance, unless you are facing the other way, then its not.
3. The trees that line the river.
4. Water Mint, growing in the stream.
5. The River Calder.
6. So here I am in an empty field on my hands and knees taking a snap, just as I finish I turn around and a lady is passing with her dog.
7. Dean Brook as it passes under Clapper Bridge.
8. The River Calder at the point where Dean Brook joins the flow.
9. On the way back, the sky still looks full.
10. The weather briefly takes a turn to the sunny.

Yesterday a visit to the Holy land of Brewerists (Burton-on Trent) National brewery Museum.:D

Replicated Brew room, Carts & Drays, "Joe" (he likes his polos), "No, put him back he won't fit in the car!", the mechanised 'Oss, an Edwardian bar & finally some Brewers signage. :)

Included in the price was "free Supping", Okay, maybe not quite an orgy of Ale, but the option of 4 quarter pints of selected brews, or 2 halves, or a pint of a chosen tipple, sadly I had to decline being a driverist.
