How homey! A beautiful picture. I can imagine walking down this road, with a fishing pole in my hand, off to get dinner.

On behalf of the ABC Wednesday Team, Thanks for joining us this week. Hope to see you back next week too!

Now that looks like a pleasant walk. Wouldn't life be boring without trees?

That's a great photo and very special to me. My Mum's ashes are scattered just where the path starts its first bend in the distance. She is on the river side of the path, under a tree we planted. The reason the ashes are here is because she lived in Haughton Green form being a baby in 1909 to 1938. Her childhood was spent roaming that particular place and she said it was the happiest time of her life. She lived on Gibraltar Lane, where the photographer was standing. Next to the photogragher was Gibraltar Bridge which led to Gibraltar Cotton Mill or "The Gib". My mum went to work there when she left school at the age of 14. She has written a book about her childhood in Haughton Green . She died in 2008, just two days short of her 99th birthday.
