BULLS HEAD BIKERS - Sept 2009 - "Shropshire & Wales"
Making the most of these rare sunny days with a run to Whitchurch, Shropshire for a late-late breakfast followed by a run on to Llangollen, then home. This date happened to coincide with the Motorcycle News "Reclaim Wales" demonstration run attended by 1000's of bikers from all over the country so there were plenty of bikes to goggle at wherever we went. Thanks to Bill and Ray for route-planning. Neil & Andy at Whitchurch with a load of bikers on the "Reclaim Wales" ride-out in the background Bill, Ray & Ray prepare to navigate the aquaduct at Llangollen (on foot, not by bike!)
ANGLING - Sept 2009 - Blakes Cheadle Match
| Blazing sunshine (for a change) for the September match at Blakes Fisheries, kindly organised by Paddy. A slow start for some but plenty of activity for most, with enough carp showing to keep everyone's interest up even if most escaped before getting a whiff of a landing net... |  .. |
