Thursday 6 June 2024 - Around Timperley

 

The intention was to post a few photos from the RHS Bridgewater Gardens, but after passing a fine display of orchids beside the canal, our onward progress beyond Barton Lane was halted by a nail that decided to invade Sue's rear tyre.

She didn't have a spare inner tube, so I turned around and cycled home to collect the car, then return to pick up Sue and the bike by car, returning home via Ed's bike shop (Stamford Cycle Co) in Altrincham, where he sorted out the muddle of chain, tyre and inner tube. Thanks Ed.

That leaves me with just a few snaps taken from the canal towpath between Timperley and Stretford:

Later, a walk that incorporated De Quincey Park. Do you remember the picture of a fallen tree a couple of weeks ago. This is what remains of that tree - the mess was cleared within a day or two.
