And the burn mark of the devil's hoof!
"......Dee lived in Chetham's School - then Christ's College, home to the priests of the Church - and a table from Dee's time there still exists in the Audit Room. It bears evidence of a story which blew up around Dee and eventually put paid to his term as warden.

That is a great photo, Tony. Glad you enjoyed the walk - that is a lovely stretch of canal. We went walking up Stainland today, you can see most of the Northern Hemisphere from up there. And after all that walking in all that sun I am inclined to misquote your poet - Not only do the thirst seek a good pint of ale, a good pint of ale seeks the thirsty.
Most enjoyable slide show, especially the pics of the canal and boats. Thanks!
You haven't changed a bit!
A great photo match for our theme! I enjoyed the slide show too. Next to being on a narrowboat, walking along a canal towpath is my favorite British pastime.
I hadn't heard of SmugMug before. It looks like an interesting site, but I don't know if I like them acquiring Flickr.
Great slide show! Also love that photo of you in the Marlon Brando jacket. You look like a 10-year-old nobody would want to mess with :-)
Nice jacket! And your photos from your walk were very enjoyable.
Thank You All
