photographers all over the abbey

here are a load of people with digital SLRs all climbing over the ruined Abbey in Reading.
That’s Abbey as in church rather than the building society

blakes lock museum – a diversion rather than a destination

due to chicken pox potential infectiousness i took kezia to a museum rather than church this morning (my logic makes sense somehow).
after much travelling (lots of which was walking by the water (canal) under water (rain)) we ended up at blakes lock museum.
neither kezia nor i were very impressed when we got there as it’s not very big and not very interesting (for 3 year olds).

i imagine on a nice sunny day it would be a nice diversion if you happen to be doing a canal walk in Reading, but as a destination it was disappointing but at least we had no contact with pregnant ladies !

whatever happens to old gloves ?

do you ever wonder where the old gloves go that i see and photograph. i don’t.
but here’s one we saw last week, but a week later. it’s managed to climb up the hedge.

bottle of coke in a wet ditch

this isn’t really a cola drink on a railing. it’s more of a cola bottle in a soggy ditch. these things happen.
