Things in 3
A shelf with a host of miniature objects. At the Front – Three Snowglobes
The First – a Winnie the Pooh Snowscene….
The Second – a Windmill Snowglobe from the Island Rhodes
The Third – a Snowglobe from the Sea Life Centre, Manchester
It didn’t matter if it didn’t snow this Christmas – these provided the snow to order!
Another poem by inky
Salford (via Llandudno) , 11th January 2018
I like the pebble beach at Llandudno.
each of those stones, has their own tale to tell
time taken over millions of years to form,
then broken up and shaped over another stretch of time
to create the many shapes that come together as a flat bed by the Irish Sea
great for skimming on the surface – if you can find just the right round ones
some of the cast are smooth to the touch and shiny as a button
but a word of caution – wear your shoes – some of these are sharp!
Salford 19th December
Taking his position along the rest of the toys,
Our hero in red, keeps his eye on the rest of his chums
Year on year , he stands on guard
Sometimes, walking back and forth, when he ventures
Out of his box.
Liked by his pals in the house,
Days are brightened by his colourful persona
In winter, he likes walking round, as
Excited little fellows see what the jolly fellow in
Red has brought them
Salford Quays, 22nd November 2018
Christmas is coming……
We might be in November, but we’ve had a bit of festive decoration arrive on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal today
A number of brightly decorated snowmen, have found themselves stood around and about in locations at Salford Quays. From The Lowry to Mediacity UK, They’re all based around Raymond Briggs’ original fun character and have been decorated by local children and young people in the area.
Its Been a buzzy few months for local artworks as previously we had Bee in the City land in Salford as part of the Hive in Manchester. When they flew to pastures new, the Snowmen paid us a visit. While the Bees raised money for the We Love Manchester Fund, This time all funds will go to BBC Children in need
Feel free to comment on the snowmen I’ve captured….I’ll post more as and when i find them.

perplexing
confusing
trialling
three words to describe an imagine puzzle
they arrive at the recipients house…fully completed
seems easy doesn’t it ? The simplest of objectives
dismantle and reconstruct
my advice….leave them in the cellophane
if you value a shred of your sanity
for once opened….it’ll take it bit by bit.

Now sat with the other beachcombers treasures
A home for the hermit crab
Until yesterday it was collecting plankton on the sea bed
Till it was hoisted up and placed carefully
In a yellow collection bucket, where it
Lived with others like it
Until the beachcomber created
Something to make his house guests smile
#cffc #perspective
I like taking perspective shots with my camera, taking different views of things
Here’s a few of my personal favourites
#rain #clouds #weather #water
rivers of water fall from sky
clouds have had falling out again
droplets of water cling to glass
not wanting to drop into sewers
fighting gravity to stop imminent splashes
