Today we remember two dads who were active in  WW2

Sydney Snape

Alan and Jean's dad

...who was active in the North Atlantic as a member of The Royal Navy...


and

Douglas McClelland

...dad to Ian, Rosemary and Geraldine...

...who patrolled the docks and ship building port of Belfast...


We miss these two men
and
...are thankful for their lives.

Lockdown walks in Penketh

I'm enjoying the need to walk around the district again!!
Over the weekend two lovely walks towards the south of the parish...

Sankey Brook...
...making it's way down to the Mersey River...


...and this one very close to our home...

... the walk down to the Ferry Inn by the Mersey and the yacht haven in the Sankey Canal...
...golden light on the water..still...



...the boat yard by the canal... 



 

..and here's some lovely autumn colour from the garden at 
The Potters House Penketh.


..as they say on all the blog posts...
