Ogden to Bradshaw

We were 'All over the shop' today and on our way home Sue dropped me at Ogden so I could walk home.

Quite pleasant in the sun and out of the wind, but my Soil Hill home route was a waste of effort with a very strong wind up there.

At least the strong wind cooled me down after The Ned Hill Road grunt.

I scrutinised very carefully, the now very sizable revealed  "coastline" but nothing special was seen.

Some very smart Juv. Lesser Black-backed here.

Edinburgh Fringe.

You will, no doubt, have noticed that the results of the Edinburgh Fringe funniest 2024 jokes have been released on the inter web - take a look - they are very funny.

I thought I'd start my own version of the Fringe.

Bradshaw Whinge.

I went to The Range yesterday and bought a really beautiful painting to hang on our kitchen wall.

It came with some complicated picture hooks and I struggled to understand how the hooks were supposed to work.

But, in the end, I nailed it.

One was "Squealing" all the time. 

The fuss they made had all the Gulls up sticks from the shore and land in the water en-masse.
