A photo of the day thread

Must admit I didn’t spot them. I spent most of my time looking up and at the glazing or listening to the organ which was being tuned up today.
It's an amazing building there is so much to see you can keep going back.
It maybe modern compared to some but fascinating
 
I have heard of the black sheep of the family, today, in Stratford-upon-Avon we met…….

Sorry he has his back turned but I think he was shy.

We've seen lots of black swans in New Zealand. This one was surfing on the waves and enjoying itself 😂

Are you sure he's not an ugly duckling
 
We spotted this 1981 Datsun that had been converted into a motorhome/camper while we were in Collingwood at the tip of the South Island, NZ. We then found a quiet waterfront spot at Takaka for our lunch.

Today in the process of building a Fogstar Energy 12V 315Ah Kit together, The case is very well made, and heavy too.

Also the kit is going for a great price at the moment, A LiFePO4 315Ah battery, BMS plus well made case for £349, it's a no brainer.

Yes, had lunch there quite a few times in the early 80’s when we lived in the Cotswolds. Still enjoy going back from time to time.🙂

Absolutely, but the buggers won't ship to Spain.
 
Popped to the seaside for fish and chips at our fave place. Then a walk back to the car. These and the defences were in response to a big storm back on Valentines Day 2014 that took out 119 beach huts.

Where is this, please? It looks like the sea still goes over the pathway and probably into the beach huts.

In my younger years, me and mates used to frequent a pub in Stevenage that was locally known as "Ted the Grass", it real name was "Edward the Confessor" 😊

There's a pub in Oxford called The Eagle and Child, but locally it's always called The Bird and Baby.
 
There's a Mucky Duck (Black Swan) at Ockham, just off the A3, lovely old pub with good food and a classic car meet the 2nd Sunday of each Month, it's worth a visit if you're in the area.
 
We found this sculpture fascinating. It is outside a school in Arbeca, a small town in rural Spain.

We think it represents a mother and child attending the school. Unfortunately the child's upper body/head is missing!

Zoom in to see the component parts of the sculpture!
