I also write at…. Newer posts →. Springwater Park: The clear up. August 19, 2011. Well, this poor blog has been much neglected of late. A combination of factors has led to my lack of action, not least of which has been preparing myself for a new job which starts imminently. I’ve been at the park just as often as usual though, and have a huge backlog of photos to get through, so any posts I manage at the moment are likely to be more photos than word. What do you think of the clear up? May 26, 2011. I&#821...

I also write at…. Springwater Park: The clear up. Northern Quarter hearts U, Manchester →. Queens Park, Bolton. August 27, 2011. Clearly benefiting from a lot of recent work and investment, Queen’s Park is a mere skip from the centre of Bolton. A great playground for the kids, some lovely flowerbeds and some very steep hills for those of you who like to keep yourselves fit. This entry was posted in Bolton Parks.

I also write at…. Queens Park, Bolton. Bury Light Night →. Northern Quarter hearts U, Manchester. September 4, 2011. What could be better on a sunny sunday afternoon than some al fresco beats, beers and bunting? We stumbled upon this fab street festival today in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. The action is going on in and around Edge Street, Thomas Street and Tib Street until 9 tonight, entry is free, and there is outdoor eating and drinking aplenty.

I also write at…. Wintry walk: The Chetham Arms, Turton. Last year’s Latitude →. Fairy flashmob: Piccadilly fairytales. February 16, 2012. Are you stuck for something to do tomorrow? I love the sound of this event, but sadly I will be stuck teaching a lesson about David Lloyd George. If, unlike me, you can get to Manchester’s Piccadilly Station at 11am on Friday 17th. This slither of whimsical fun is being put on by the organisers of Spellbound Forest. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Join 49 othe...

Bury Light Night |

https://parklover.wordpress.com/2011/10/12/bury-light-night

I also write at…. Northern Quarter hearts U, Manchester. Wintry walk: The Chetham Arms, Turton →. October 12, 2011. If you’re anywhere near Bury on Friday 14th October, you have to check out Bury Light Night. This new event sounds fantastic, with masses going on around the town centre. Personally, I’ll be heading to Kay Gardens to look at the lanterns and listen to some acoustic tunes, then on to Crompton Street for the promise of wild street performers and a candle lit labyrinth.

Last year’s Latitude |

I also write at…. Fairy flashmob: Piccadilly fairytales. Heading for the hills: A day out in Saltaire →. Last year’s Latitude. February 20, 2012. Apparently there was a drought in east England last year. Well, not when I visited for the Latitude Festival. There wasn’t. That’s me, grinning through gritted teeth and gripping a pint as though my life depended on it. The setting of Latitude is just beautiful and if I do go again, I’d really like to make time for a trip to the nearby seaside resort of S...
