Bramhall

On our way to visit our good friends in Manchester we stopped by LLangollen to have a quick look at the famous Pontcysyllte Aquaduct carrying the LLangollen canal above the River Dee. Another beautiful hot and sunny day, and so lovely walking by the canal.
The aqueduct is quite a spectacle and a masterpiece of engineering, standing high above the river 130 feet below. Well worth the short detour. With great walking and cycling in the area it is another place for us to return to when K's injury is sorted.
Then on to Manchester where we enjoyed a fabulous weekend with Gill and Richard. Two great bbqs and the odd glass or two of wine and beer. We even managed to squeeze in a walk around Bramhall Hall before a quick refresher at The Thieves Neck pub. We caught up with each other's news and enjoyed a wonderful Saturday evening singing along to you tube hits from the past. GIll and Karen were dancing until the early hours!!!! not sure how much good it did Karen's leg, but she seemed to survive it all!!!!Read more
