Popular Post Stevegods Posted July 18, 2018 Popular Post Posted July 18, 2018 Not quite great pictures but just wanted to share pics of a couple of old school benches that work where throwing out ... ( they are slinging 15 of them away so I grabbed them all ) . Taken a while to do and I will deffo do a better job on the next ones I do , but these two are for a mates 60th down in Cornwall weekend after next .. Hope the surfs up and the weather stays fine as it’s two weeks as usual for six mates and families camping . 9
Popular Post Twoshoes Posted July 22, 2018 Popular Post Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) At last I'm able to do a decent walk after my bypass, maybe not great pics but things of interest along the way...First pic is of a set of carry in/carry out steps thought to be one of the few remaining in Lancashire and a throwback to when cotton was spun at home, cannot remember exact details I have the info somewhere but cannot find it, bales of raw cotton would be delivered up the steps and the top floor of the cottage would be where the spinning into cotton thread was done and then carried out down the steps. Second photo is taken from Scout Moor opposite my house and shows Holcolmbe Hill with it's tower and Winter Hill behind to the right. Third and fourth pictures are on the Irwell Sculpture trail, sadly both the Three Kings and the Picture frame are falling into disrepair, the Three Kings is a homage to Lancashire's Industrial heritage I believe ,there was more to the picture frame, some sculptures behind it but they have long gone and rotted away as has the bottom part of the frame.

The yellow echinacea put on a rather stiff display (what with being metal). What was at the back? If it's a veratrum, then I'm impressed, if a foxglove or verbascum less so. On closer inspection I'm certain it's a verbascum (79%) Dave Edited July 27, 2018 by TattooDave because I can

Mirabilis jalapa ought to work too, easy enough to grow from seed, and once happy will self seed elsewhere in the garden. A yucca might give you added structure too.

Popular Post Twoshoes Posted July 30, 2018 Popular Post Posted July 30, 2018 A few pictures from my walk today, the Tower on Holcolmbe Hill has been taunting me for over a year every time I've sat in the garden or looked out of the window, finally felt strong enough after bypass to give it a go today, bloody knackered when I got up there, the Urn caused quite a bit of disagreement when it was first installed as part of the Irwell Valley Sculpture trail as many thought it had nothing to do with Ramsbottoms history, the Stag is in some ones garden on the hill, not sure what it's made of but it looked pretty impressive, the roots of the trees on the path have always impressed me, the photo doesn't really do them justice, the view is looking across the valley to my house, it was wonderful to be out walking again and maybe in the near future I won't have to stop quite as much when the fuel runs out... 12
