Beluga over Manchester

Today I spotted this Airbus Beluga flying over Manchester City Centre. It is a huge transport plane used by Airbus to ferry Aircraft parts across Europe.

I think it kind of looks like a big flying Dolphin!

Every Street In Manchester

Today I walked along Every Street in Manchester;

Up Up and a ... Bentley!

The other day I spotted a Bentley being lifted onto the roof of the Great John Street Hotel in Manchester City Centre.

It is a posh place where 'celebrities' stay whilst visiting Granada next door, however I didn't know it had Valet parking!

Kinder Scout

This weekend we decided to head to Edale and tackle the groughs of Kinder Scout. The reason for this choice is that the Kinder Scout plateaux is notoriously boggy, but in winter, when the peat bog is frozen over, it is a pleasure to walk upon.

Pictures from the day can be seen below.
