Saturday Mix - Old

No problem about guessing the age of this pub its on the door frame and the sign, 1691.  The Ship Inn only open three days of the week, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. What do the folk in the village of  Kirkby in Furness do the rest of the week?   No problem, there is another pub open all week at the other end of this street, but not as old as this one.

Saturday Mix - Flying

Sister is flying a kite. Unusually for the north west coast of England there is hardly any wind. But she has it fluttering.  Brother approaching.....
 No I want a go at flying. Why is it not flying?
Here comes Dad to the rescue.
 Never will fly wrapped round your ankle.   Tricky business flying kites.

Saturday Mix - Love

 Love of Nature

The prompt for Shannara's Saturday Mix photomeme this week is Love/Kärlek.  

The blossom was falling from the trees and scattering over the bracken so who could resist this 
heart shaped petal.

Saturday Mix - Forgotten

Someone is missing her pretty little bag. Maybe she was going to a party dressed in a matching dress.  But here it is hanging on some farm fencing, forgotten.  Another person walking down this lane in the Black Mountains must have come across it and put it here hoping the little girl was going to come back and find it. There is always something poignant about small items lost by a child and put out of harms way on a windowsill, seat or fence by a passing stranger.

Saturday Mix - Angles

 The newly painted Woolpack Inn, Eskdale

The daily weather board is a sight often seen in the Lake District valleys, useful to know what a day in the mountains is going to throw at you.  I could not get the black and white effect of weather board and window in the picture but I could if I tilted it, and rather liked the result.
