    Certainly is a great piece of engineering. We said we'd have to go back for trip on a boat and go on the lift.

    Anderton Boat lift complete with flying duck photo bombing :-). First time I have seen this, very impressive, the lift not the duck!!

    Great memories along with Windsford, Keele, Droylsden. For me, all at the right time as nowadays I'm lucky to get to a couple a year. Can't really comment on today's niter scene but yesterday was great. There are one or two from Keele knocking about on youtube, not sure about anywhere else but the memories wont go away.

    Had this little chap hanging round this morning. I think it's from a nest in next doors garden. I've seen them coming and going for quite a few weeks and the parent birds keep coming to my feeder for the fat balls. This young un sat and preened for about 15 minutes or so. A young Blackbird

    Steve Yes you're probably right. I was looking at the juvenile whinchat in my book. They all look the bloody same and in my defence I didn't have me specs on :-) Come to think about it, there was quite a few flitting about the area as well as a lot of sky larks.

    had a mooch around the Carneddau area of Snowdonia on Monday and came across my first swallow of the year as well as a Stonechat and what I think is a Whinchat, another first

    Two from Snowdonia. The first, part of the disused Rhossydd. Slate Quarry, the second, a panoramic of a distant Snowdon, the pointy "Welsh Matterhorn" - Cnicht & the Moelwyns. The third is of the Newlands Valley, carved out by a Glacier, in the Lake District

    Had a wander round Dunham Park on Saturday and apart from the Swan making a fuss it was quite peaceful

    First wasp of the year buzzing round the room where I was working today. A couple of pigeons trying to keep warm and dry in yesterday's rain while keeping their beady eye's on me :-)

    I think there's too many groups on FB full stop. Some are very good and quite relaxed and some have more rules, do's and don'ts that you can shake a stick at Glad you like my wanderings :-)

    A couple from a walk up Crinkle Crags and Bow Fell on Saturday. Despite the artic look it was surprisingly warm with very little wind

    Have got a Tiny-Pic and a photobucket account but never really use them now as most of my photo's go on FB. Used to use them for forums and to upload on here but that is now much easier do take them straight "out of the box" so to speak. Too much crap with photo bucket nowadays

    Cheers. I used to live near the airport and was always watching planes coming and going from the Bollin Valley. I remember seeing a plane called the GUPPY, a parts carrier I think but not sure if I've ever seen the Beluga. Looks mighty big according to youtube

    A Virgin Jumbo Jet and the Emirates A380 taking off today at Manchester Airport. A grey misty day so not very clear but awesome things when they go right over your head in touching distance

    Again, some great photo's on here Just had a great 5 days in the ski capitol, Meribel, France. Not skiing, just visiting our lad who is working out there. Blue skies and sunshine for 5 days and fantastic scenery. Up and down a lot of the ski lifts just lazing about taking it all in, awesome stuff :-) First picture looking down on an inversion over the village of Les Allues with Mont Blanc over to the right Second picture on one of the many ski lifts dotted about the area Third picture is from the summit of Tougnete @ 2454 metres

    Good to see another year of photo's. Not posted for a bit but keep looking and there's some great shots from around the world. Just missed last years end so out of the two today I have included a shot taken from the Summit of Moel Siabod on December 28th 2016 looking across to Snowdon and the Glyderau mountains, Snowdonia. The second picture is looking across to Moel Siabod from Snowdon on New Years Day 2017. Two great days in the mountains over the festive break. Happy soulful new year to all :-)

    Having not been on here for a bit, can I ask what's up with Louis. Used to have a bit of banter with him back in the day, on the old KTF site, usually football related, and at places like Lowton & Cleethorpes. Hope he's ok.

    Used to get played at the Oakfield Club in sale. I should think it would of been off an LP I imagine. Got it on a tape off one the djs at the time. Great tune https://m.mixcloud.com/andy-prolze/sounds-of-the-oakfield-28-8-1999/
