Scouse, Re your pic of the Yates's Wine Lodge, Can you tell us where it is? Ta.
Moorfields ofDale St,Norm...thats the old Yates the new one is by Blacklers.
Exactly where George said. Im sure it's supposed to be getting knocked down, I thought that was a while ago though
I'm going to ask a dumb question about this pic of the day - why is the water spurting out here ? and does it spurt out constantly or just at certain times ? Sorry if I sound thick :) is it to do with the low tide ?
one for Waterways ?
I assume is is to keep the mud moist. That is the Brunswick river lock which faces southish. In hot weather it could dry out being directly in line with the sun. If it is allowed to go hard it would build up with the next layer washed in on the tide, and require expensive dredging.

Here's my fuzzy effort,from Saturday.A field of rape seed,in Thornton. (Anyone know how,or why, it got it's unfortunate name?) 25-5-10.
Nice pic, Steve. A quick search and wikipedia gave this answer
Rapeseed (Brassica napus), also known as rape, oilseed rape, rapa, rappi, rapaseed and (in the case of one particular group of cultivars, canola) is a bright yellow flowering member of the family Brassicaceae (mustard or cabbage family). The name derives from the Latin for turnip, rāpum or rāpa, and is first recorded in English at the end of the 14th century.

Thanks, AZ. I believe I have fixed the link. I similarly cycled past the stone on my way to Quarry Bank. I can remember being caught late by the Deputy Head sneaking into the door at Quarry, and being told, "George, you're slow enough to catch a cold!" -- and that I would never amount to anything if I wasn't punctual.
