Back in Taunton North BankWould make a good jigsaw... Title in PictureNice pictures as always. As a funny aside, I read the titles wrong as I was going along and thought you were suggesting the museum one would make a good jigsaw (all that foliage is my preferred type )

So, here's the last batch from 2022. I've actually had these edited for three weeks or so, but I've been so discouraged by problems with photobucket and my camera(s) - not to mention the dark and dismal weather and the persistent cold that destroyed my garden and crushed my spirit somewhat - that I just couldn't face it. Anyway, enough fun-filled reminiscence, let's get down to business.

Part 5 Roar The Brick Tree gives voice, and has feasted... Wampyr Tangled Up in Blue A week before Xmas, a thaw, and then a couple of nights of rain - here comes the flood How Am I Supposed to Fish in This? Torrent This is Firepool Weir. Normally the drop is around eight feet into a few inches of water. Early this summer it dried up almost completely. That white graffito you can just see on the far bank normally tops out six feet above the water. The tree in the middle is on what is normally the bank. White Power From French Weir footbridge ...
