I nearly went back to see the steam train (was it just after 7?) but was too tired - looks good :cool:

Yeah that's the one, there were quite a few people there to see it. I was nearly crushed by anoraks on the footbridge when it arrived in a different platform to the one shown on the screens :hmm:
 
Street shots from yesterday

Some I took I yesterday.

BTW: Is the "Is the Urban 75 Critics" sticky dead?

She is a regular around here, always with the same big hair and the dog in her arms. Lovely lady.

This tourist lady from the UK was in our park yesterday. She took a photo, glasses on, then peeped at the result on the viewfinder, glasses down.

An absolute fluke: I lifted the cam to take a pic of something, then this couple strolled into view. He is blind, eyes closed, feeling his way with his "blind stick", she is leading him. I am looking at all this in the viewfinder, waiting for them to pass out of my shot. The next moment, he opens his eyes, looks up, and points at something ....

Wonky horizon but it was pissing / hailstoning it down and I was hurting!

And then a couple slightly further up the coast

Interesting pic of Sylvia Plath's gravestone:

"Plath's gravestone in Heptonstall churchyard bears the inscription "Even amidst fierce flames the golden lotus can be planted." The gravestone has been repeatedly vandalized with supporters of Plath chiselling off the name "Hughes." This practice intensified following the suicide in 1969 of Assia Wevill, the woman for whom Ted Hughes had left Plath, which led to claims that Hughes had been abusive toward Plath."
