Just as well -keep them out of the way of Thomas!

Yes Mick it's changed - had at least one extension built recently and a conservatory type place. Don't think Boddies have pubs any more, it's probably a free house, they usually have four or five real ales on from various breweriees and they do decent food.

When we came back to the area in 2007 it was closed but has had a real makeover since then and is a very popular watering hole especially in this weather when you can sit outside in the large garden or stand by the river.

There is a chimney in each shot, but very difficult to see, they are not used as far as I know, and the one on the factory bottoms has a ring of communication aerials around its top.

Yes I thought that about no 3, ennui, world-weariness - even the drum is the wrong way up...

Yes there's definitely a hole in that trombone Dianne!

No.10. I used to refer to it as Bomb Weed, in 1944 I saw the devastation caused by jerry bombng raids on Manchester & Salford, where ever bombs had dropped that stuff was growing in the ruins.
Where the eck had the seeds come from.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I guess its the explosions mixing up the soil and rubble bringing seeds to the surface, a similar effect to the poppies that sprang up in France.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I'm with Dave on liking number 7 best - I have a weakness for Hollyhocks.

The nicest ones I have ever seen were growing along a little side-street between some cottages on the Ille de Re -wonderful island off the coast of Brittany. I will have to look out my photos -weren't digital back in the 90's! :thankya:

Re: Today in pictures
 

We walked around Jumbles Res today to see if the water level had dropped.
