Teepee

This teepee was in light oaks park a couple of days ago, some sort of council thing

Early Morning Run

I've been up a little bit earlier than usual this week, as the Race for Life draws ever near, I've had to start training more with my runs.
Yesterday morning the park looked so beautiful in the morning light that I managed to slow down long enough to snap the sun coming through the trees

Square Plinth Update

Previously seen square plinth thing, has now been filled with plants!

Lost Trolley

This trolley was a bit off course, being in the park which is about 1.5 miles from the nearest wilko's store!

World Cup Fever

This is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Salford' love of the England Squad. Flags on cars, across houses, out of windows, everywhere!

Gate Locking

Something of a bone of contention on my part, this is the sign for the gate opening hours in the park. When I first moved here, the gate nearest my house was opened around 7.30am, but gradually that time has been pushed back so now it's normally past 8am (by which point I have left for work already). Like many other residents in the area I walk my dog here, the park has 5 entrances and only one of these now still has 24 hour access by way of a squeeze gate. But in some twisted turn of fate, it is this gate that has 24 hour access that is opened first, usually before 7.15am! god knows what the key holder does for the next 45 minutes or so, as the park really isn't big enough to get lost in, you can walk the perimeter in 20 mins tops.

Secret Doorway

I pass this doorway virtually every day, or rather bricked up doorway, it appears to have once led into a garden area, and it in the perimeter wall of a large property.
It reminds me of the book 'Secret Garden' that I loved as a child.
