Weekly Chat (Non-Osprey), 14 August 2022

It's been a bitty day - a bit of this and a bit of that!

Got a reply at last to my enquiry as to the resiting of a local road sign- completely in the wrong place, which made me twitch every time I went past. The local bods are now going to see to it at last - I've been complaining about it for two years. Yay!

Sat in the garden after lunch - much pleasanter than in the hot weather last week. My OH has just cooked a yummy roast pork dinner for us & we had a bit of bought cheesecake afterwards.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO DIANE

My team came tied 4th at golf. We really enjoyed the format and had a lovely time. Tired now though.

Hi all, not been on for some time.   Away the last two weekends and trying to catch up with one thing and another.

Not going to read back for the full week but hope everybody is feeling well.

Was in Worsley last weekend, which is my home village.   Looked up my brother and some old friends. Went to the Lancashire Mining Museum at Astley and also up to the Trough of Bowland. Had a lovely weekend and am posting one or two pics.- 1at one is of Morecambe Bay and the Lakeland Hills in the distance.

The three after Morecambe Bay were taken in the Miners Cottage at Astley, followed by the tearooms at Dunsop Bridge and the Bridge itself in the Tof B.  The last two are of the spot where we stopped - so peaceful and tranquil right by the river which was more of a trickle.  By the way, the Miners Cottage was built by Robert Shaw who designed the sets for Peaky Blinders. He fell in love with the site and of what they are trying to do - preserving the history of the area for the next generation.

another one of the Trough of Bowland and where we stopped.

hEATHERB - just seen your post about the lady gardners - downright diabolical. I pay 20£ for 2 hours work, whether grass cutting or weeding. You have been had. Hope you manage to get someone else.

BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DIANE - JUST SEEN THE POSTS RELATING TO THIS.
