i love this tree. i pass it most days, although it’s dark when i go by at this time of year (shorted day soon though so visibility should start to improve at some point)

a trip to the museum

100613_850_img_0609.jpg

we went to the local museum yesterday and it was fab in a rather disturbing way

100613_850_img_0596.jpg

in amongst the dead stuff they had some living stuff which sat really still and smiled

100613_850_img_0597.jpg

but there was plenty of disturbing beasty stuff

100613_850_img_0602.jpg

and strange fish hung from the ceiling

100613_850_img_0603.jpg

and things organised in rows

retro bowling

100612_850_img_0568.jpg

we went to a fantastically retro bowling alley today.  apparently this is the more modern one of our two nearest.  i’m sure i remember this machine from trips bowling in nottingham from when i was a lad

100612_850_img_0559.jpg

the shoes certainly looked like they’ve seen a few years of action

and there were plaques all over the place celebrating big achievements on the different lanes.  this one showed the first time someone had scored over 300 on lanes 15 and 16.

100612_850_img_0564.jpg

the machines looked modern in a retro calculator sort of way

100612_850_img_0567.jpg

you could image people playing the original space invaders game in the background loving all the new technology

100612_850_img_0569.jpg

and the cafe was great too

100612_850_img_0556.jpg

and finally there was a lovely universal greeting sign as we came in.  all absolutely lovely and we shall be back for more of the same next month !
