Thursday Wander ...

... but I did fix a dripping tap first !!

Went for a wander up to Hartshead Pike today - and took "The Beast" (170/500mm) with me - all a bit hazy for decent pictures though ... Manchester City Centre was covered in haze/pollution/etc ... Managed a few pictures though - following the relative success of the Pike o'Stickle pic up in the Lake District a couple of weekends ago - I give you a panoramic view of Oldham from the top of the Pike - not brilliant (although it does blow up fairly well), but a bit of fun anyway ...




... a close-up of Oldham Council offices ("The Beast" at full 500mm !)



... and here's one looking towards Ashton United's ground ...




... and a "Swedish shop" in the centre of Ashton ...



Did the voting thing - three papers - AV "rubbish", Borough Council and Parish Council - right or wrong, let's hope Clegg and his bunch get a good stuffing ("Why did Nick Clegg cross the road ?? Because he promised not to") ... no plans as yet for tomorrow ...
