SHEFFIELD. A Meeting With The God Pan.

A walk through the Botanical Gardens in Sheffield will reveal many things to you

There is a quiet B road that runs south from the Highland town of Aviemore and threads it’s way through the thickly wooded hills and soon leaves the clamour of the town behind. It’s a twisting, winding route with little traffic, a quiet alternative to the heavy roar of the A9 which it parallels.
A feature of the Edinburgh Fringe that I always take notice of is the army of the flyer distributors that inhabit the Royal Mile around where the preview stages sit. There’s is the unsung task of persuading/cajoling/jollying along the passing punters to come and see their show.
From my coffee and cannoli ( see previous post ) I got my tram ticket and travelled on down to the leafy suburb of Didsbury. I past this be-tusked gentleman sitting and watching the world go by. Conversation was short as I didn’t have bananas or peanuts with me. He said he’d remember me next time.
I’ve a couple of routes to chose from on my wanderings across the Wirral, the thumb like area that faces Liverpool on the one side and North Wales on the other.
One of the things I like to discover on my wanderings are the old, painted wall advertisements.
