The dry dock in use

Monday 9th June 2014, 4.50pm (day 1,019)

Dry dock, 9/6/14

This doesn’t happen that often, but when it does it’s kind of impressive. The dry dock at Hebden Bridge marina is fully functional, and as you can see, well placed for a half-decent pub.

Canal contraption

Monday 22nd July 2013, 8.50am (day 697)

Canal contraption, 22/7/13

Too unusual not to use as today’s picture. I believe this contraption was put to use repairing the canal bank here in Hebden Bridge today.

By the way, am I the only one having ‘issues’ with WordPress – I mean, logging on, even making some blogs appear at all?

Nevertheless, have I mentioned that today was my last day in Manchester for at least 5 months? Thank you…
