Springlike

Posted by Skytower on Thu March 18, 2010

Has spring finally sprung?

Let’s not speak too soon… remember a couple of years ago, and April to be more precise – when the snow returned and ground the country to a halt? If you don’t…

… then this Hayling-orientated video will remind you (not that you could forget what snow looks like after the winter just gone…).

But, it has certainly been milder and nicer this week – enough to warrant the first day out excursion since… bloody hell… possibly twelve months ago in Southampton. Foxton Locks was the location, a place only around forty-five minutes from here, near Market Harborough. And, as the name suggests, there are locks there. Ten of them, to be precise…

(It was actually a heck of a lot nicer than the dark nature of the photo suggests – the sun decided to do one for a few minutes! The rest of the photos are available here, incidentally. All nine of them.)

Summer can wait until the traditional time of the last Saturday in June. Just a small request…
