Today has been Manchester Day....when the city gives it's self a cold blow of the nose and comes out into the streets yet again to shake off the IRA...Bombing which destroyed half the city all those years ago. Thankfully the rain held off giving time for the big parade to blur across the city in bands and dancers from every culture known to man. Enough food cooking to feed the five thousand from bible stories with more than bread and five fishes if my school boy head reminds me.
I have found the older i have become the more emotional i have become simple silly things make me well up with a reasoning not quite logical or so it seems....Standing in the crowd this afternoon i was almost a blubbering wreck



Thankfully i was on my own...and i might add even the fact free beer was on offer of which i declined even though i was riding on local buses for the day and therefore could have filled my boots in bubbles should i have wished. I simply stood and watched time march past...These two pictures made me smile and that sence in this mad world not all hope is lost....To whom pass this way have a good week..love and peace..x
