Good to see the photos of the woodlands. When I was growing up the area was all grass right over to Bell lane and there were four football pitches and a cricket pitch, when we played on them we were in the Accy combination it cost us eleven shillings a game paid to the council. There was also a large pond down in the field with large trees all around.
Before the council owned it I think it belonged to the miners and there was a very large wooden building which was later used for players changing. I would have been about six when my Mother and Dad went there every Saturday night for dancing and drinking and a good social evening out. Three full size snooker tables and at the back of the building two bowling greens. That was when people new how to enjoy there selves, Happy Days still remembered.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Right place, right time DM, like my bowled out cricketer.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Lovely photos G Pick -looks so green and the springer spaniels are really cute. What are their names? Great shot of the cricketer too -glad the weather seems to be better over there...

Re: Today in pictures
 

Nice pics again Dave. I've been wandering Cremona and the arts festival - field day architecture-wise will post tomorrow! :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

The setting is inspirational

Re: Today in pictures
 

Their names are Daisy ( the hyperactice one ) and Duke ( Fathead ), can`t believe I got that shot of the cricketer , only took four pics of that game and I got him being bowled out.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Daisy has a great "pointer" stance that I`ve been trying to catch, she just doesn`t hold it for long enough.:(

Re: Today in pictures
 

Are the names from the Dukes of Hazzard -remember that old TV series? :D

Re: Today in pictures
 

A series of shots around the side streets of Cremona -mostly round the back of the Cathedral. Final one shows an mid-1800's factory which is just outside the center and has been preserved -could almost be in Accrington with the red-brick and chimneys!

More of the center of town and the festival tomorrow...

Just a stroll along the banks of the Leeds/Liverpool Canal today for us

Re: Today in pictures
 

Those narrow streets are more than interesting, I would be there for hours, days, snapping them, especially when the street lights are on.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Yes it is. We got Daisy first, she already had that name and we kept it. When we got Duke, it seemed a good name for him.
