Extras

The old Slaithwaite Road

All I have for you today is five more images from my visit to Slaithwaite and its environs. I toyed with the idea of sharing some thoughts about Taylor Swift's engagement to Travis Kelce. Then I considered reflecting on Fatty Trump's vindictive targeting of  Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook. Another idea was to have a closer look at Nigel Farage and the eerie rise of The Reform Party here in Great Britain. Perhaps I could write about the day I met Dave Gilmour of Pink Floyd or sleeping in a tent on Lindisfarne when it rained heavily all the following day. Possibly another "Quiztime" or how it is when a lovely English summer starts to turn to autumn... But no - just five more pictures from yesterday's adventure - thirty miles north of here...

  1. Good choice YP. I am not sure I could have coped with your alternative options.

    1. I realise that you are very sensitive JayCee so I am pleased I did not unhinge you.

  2. The canal shot is particularly scenic.

  3. You can get the train to Marsden and walk back on the canal to Huddersfield.
    Do you know Slawit Phil?
