Accrington Web - Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, not so much a walk, I just seemed to ricochet around the area.

1. Mercer Park, a Primula, smelling strongly of cheese.
2. Speaks for itself.
3. Nice flower but a sod to get rid of, Bindweed.
4. More tea Vicar.
5. A nice quiet corner........forever.
6. All Saints Church.
7. Reading the stone you can see the family went through hard times, but there is no excuse for calling your son Pickles.
8. A Rose, shedding a tear.
9. I said, can I have a cone, she said do you want "crushed nuts"...I said there is no need to be like that,... I just wanted an ice cream.
10. And that was the end of my bouncing about all over the place.....for a while at least.

How strange -fancy calling a child Pickles -I wonder why?

Nice varied selection - I like the lot! Looks like it was busy down town.

Look who's been nibbling my nuts today

Great photo of the Magpie - number two has a wonderful expression, looks like he's quite put out at having his photo taken!

I set out in the hottest part of the day on a long walk (stupidly) - I was tricked into thinking it wouldn't be too bad as the sun was hazy and behind clouds! Fortunately I wore my signature white baseball cap and was carrying a drink - there's a coule of handy drinking fountains in the village too once i got there... This set are from the first , more country, part of the walk - second set tomorrow around the village. I ate a few of the tiny wild plums in number 10 - very nice!

A couple of hours out & about taking random snaps. :)

A Stonechat (?) on the heathland at Achmer - A glider being winched up, Achmer - Grimlin taking a break from mouse hunting - A blue sea of Cornflowers amongst the wheat - Poppies at Westerbeck - Storks looking for tasty morsels - The farmer making the tasty morsels available
