Jump Heaven. We haven't been there for a while. Two hours of joy for Isabella.
Then she wanted a baked potato with beans for lunch, but they had run out of potatoes so she had to make do with a chocolate cupcake.
The main purpose of this blog is to keep in touch with friends and family, and maybe entertain others with common interests, particularly in relation to the outdoors. We hope you enjoy it, and your comments are valued....

Wednesday 9 October 2024 - A Phoenix Park Circuit
I'd advertised this ride, so felt obliged to do it despite rain and no other takers apart from Sue, who joined me for a 22km outing to Lymm before turning back. She took the above photo before retreating to Timperley
I left the Trans Pennine Trail (TPT) here, taking back roads and tracks to avoid the angry dog walkers of Lymm, before joining the Bridgewater Canal towpath at Moore. Time for elevenses.
Sunday 6 October 2024 Wythenshawe Community Run
I collected a few mushrooms that were later rejected as 'probably poisonous' by Heather T-S, on her return from a function in London. Never mind, we live to taste another day.

Saturday 5 October 2024 - Around Lyme Park
A navigational faux pas (my fault) led over a barbed wire fence above Bakestonedale to our unexpected arrival at a monument to mining around here. Situated on the lip of a disused quarry, the sealed off pit head has a trig point like memorial to the mining activity.
Saturday 5 October 2024 - Lyme Park parkrun #474
Here are some of Saturday's 'tourists' at Lyme Park parkrun. L to R: Keith, Carol, Phil, SueW, Sue B, Jenny, Martin. Paul F and Andy W missed the photo, and Richard and Nigel didn't run.
It's up the hill towards the Bow Stones path to the start, where the run director was keen to acknowledge that today was the 20th anniversary of 'parkrun'.
What a great way to start the weekend!
