A few more things spotted on the canal at Lancaster
1 Wouldn't be the canal without some ducks
2 Out of focus, tried to sharpen it up, not wonderful, just love the composition and the ducks sailing past the pub tables
3 Prepared for all transport eventualities
4 The boat in no 3 seen from the bridge, with a grass roof used for storage
5 Another boat with bikes
6 Got to keep warm in winter
7 Not as impressive as the ones at Ossy, but we're doing our bit
8&9 These girls said they were going to be out for four hours. Hope it didn't rain!

I wonder if the boat driver knew he has picked up a naval mine on the roof in picture 6.
1. They are preparing to start up the sausage knotting machine ready for sausage dancing Friday.
2. The birds should have a good autumn of food, ready for winter.
3. It looks like I could get wet, I've only got a teeshirt and flip flops on, no pants, just a teeshirt and flip flops.
4.They said it was open plan when I rented it for the weekend.
5. Lets have a look whats through the square window.
6. It could be the Serengeti.
7. I think we should up the pace a bit.
8. Almost home, it only seems 5 minutes since these trees were bursting buds to start the year.
9. The colours of Autumn.
10. More Autumn colours.
There we are back home, and didn't get wet.........did get a police caution though. Apparently it illegal to wear one red and one blue flip flop...Ood a thowt it.

No. 1 they are the frame ends for a 10 colour printing machine, looks like one from Steiners circa 1900, one of the printing roller mounts is missing on the left. Lang Bridges made several different Colour printers for Steiners

No. its definitly a sausage knotting machine.
Its outside in the car park of Surface Printers (used to be Broadleys Printers ) in c-l-m

Wondered why it was a bit on the small side for a colour printer, the ones Langs made for Steiners were for printing on cloth & were much bigger. Don't remember Broadleys being one of Lang Bridges customers.
But have it your own way, I would just like to see it knotting sausages
So would I........I'd take a picture of them doing it....knotting sausages I mean!

Another holiday ? you never once asked us if we were coming. Lovely shots, the lake side shot close to the waters edge, my favourite.

The first one? It's my favourite too - not a posed model just someone who was there by chance as I passed by! Really captures the feeling of the place...
