Just one rung up from a plank over a ditch




Dobbs Weir on the River Lee, Essex/Herts border



Lock on the Lee Navigation

They laughed when I said I was going to be a stand-up comedian. They're not laughing now.

I've been meaning to photograph this for years. Worth the wait, I think - Eden Bridge at Lazonby:



Love that red sandstone.

Yes, and someone else as well, I think. Mike?

Here's another bridge we've had before...

Carmarthen last Saturday morning, on my way to Pembroke.


Talybont-on-Usk 1 the previous weekend (when the Heart of England 300 was being snowed on)


Talybont-on-Usk 2. That's as far as it tilts, so you need a narrow boat to get through.

Is that the bottom of the climb past the plant pot toilets?

I have no idea! I didn't see any plant pot toilets, but then, I wasn't looking. The first one is just before Glaisdale Station.. Here's the train's bridge, too

The second one is between Westerdale and Kildale in the middle of pretty bleak empty moorland, so I can't imagine plant pot toilets there.

They're both at the bottom of climbs.. But there are a fair few of those round here.

The plant pot toilets were removed a few years ago, unfortunately.

So that's why I can't grow anything in pots, the plants need access to facilities ...

It's entirely possible that when I thought I was on Toilet Bank, I was somewhere else entirely.  Like Belgium.  So I could be wrong about that.

No, they've definitely been taken away! It was for boab's benefit, as she won't have had the pleasure of seeing them.

Objection:  Those are toilet plant pots, not plant pot toilets.
