I only get to post ONE picture? For a grumpy old chap such as myself there are just so many things . . .

Oooh, I'm annoyed now - I can't find the entries thread. 

I hate getting up in the mornings:

H - you have my permission to have a lie in tomorrow 

[Hinfrance]

I hope that is within your gift Paul

I'll let SWMBO know I have permission

[jinky]

Any problems - just let me know

[Hinfrance]

Ta Paul - got the requisite permit, but was woken by a thunderstorm at 4:00 am . .

Tonight is a late night because of the Eurovision - I just love the utter daftness of the whole thing, although the recent semi final thinning out is stopping some of the most enjoyable silliness getting through. I suppose that's progress.

I forgot about Eurovision but I may photograph the TV when its on for the comp...

I'm not sure when Jedward are on . . .

Oh no - eurovision - I`d forgotten. Blue are deemed to have a chance because they have fans in Europe - if they still had any here we might have a chance of getting more than nul points!

Anyway been absent too long on here so thought I`d enter the weekend comp with a shot from Haworth 1940`s weekend. As this group seemed intent on blocking the middle of the small cobbled road I thought I`d make them my subject - missed Winston Churchill`s speech cos of them 

Great event if anyone is ever in the area - held annuallly on Sat and Sun.

How annoying that nearly everywhere you go in the countryside the landscape is dominated by wind turbines.  If they put any more up in Scotland I'm sure it will take off and become an island. ( maybe that's the reason )

I don't think they're that much of a blot on the landscape. To be honest I'd rather have a wind turbine near, than an electricity pylon, now they are blots.

It's not just there presents but the noise they make, which distrubes the wildlife.

Ah OK got you. Not really noticed the noise to be honest. I live by 2 or 3 wind farms, pass them regularly, but don't actually stop by them. Maybe next time when I'm out and have some time I might.

This week the Swifts arrived back but the weather has been cloudy and dull. So I include what would have been a stunning shot if the sun had been shining.
