Dora Doing Exploring.

26th September 2008. Helium balloon caught in the bushes, discovered on the way to play ball whiz with Claudius. She had gone off exploring somewhere else 24hrs later.

Welcome Home,

15th September 2008. Following on from the Scarborough Belles, the next in my series of civic statues! Fleetwood promenade; mother, daughter, and dog look out to sea to welcome the returning fishing fleet. They'll have a long wait, though; the trawler fleet died about 30 years ago.

From the front...

15th September 2008. Promenade side of Fleetwood Pier. Damage to bar, food outlet and amusements.

One week later...

15th September 2008. Demolition underway to clean up Fleetwood Pier following the fire. From certain angles on the promenade there appears minimal damage but from the beach it's obvious where the fire took hold.

Flagging it!

13th September 2008. Just outside The Aquaduct, Ewood. The lamp posts all now celebrate that this is 'the proud home of Blackburn Rovers FC'.

New season, new husband??

23rd August 2008. The first good game of the season is usually a good time to spot any changes that have been made over the Summer. Apart from the scoreboard being broken, the major change seems to concern the woman a few rows in front of us mim seems to have part exchanged her old husband for a more balder one. Either that or the old one has finally managed to escape...the game was THAT interesting! Match Result: ROVERS 1 (Roberts) Hull City 1 (SoF).
