How sad about Stan Brewster, I didn't see the plaque when we were there! The walkway is a wonderful lasting memory of his achievements:)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733563829902335223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-731439119249876492012-03-12T06:53:22.450+00:002012-03-12T06:53:22.450+00:00P.S.

Seeing that plaque about the bombing 2005 gives me very politically incorrect thoughts. I followed a blog for a while of someone who had been on that train and very close to the bomb.

It wasn't very interesting to be honest! <br /><br />We spent ages sat underneath the walkway too as there were fish jumping up the weir. We tried for ages to get a photo but without success! <br /><br />It's a few years since we have been, the hydro-power things were just being built then so we keep saying we'll go back now that work has finished... one day we will!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043065727770116407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602197958070805605.post-44298488553585578872012-03-11T20:04:50.108+00:002012-03-11T20:04:50.108+00:00It is all so different from any part of the countr...It is all so different from any part of the country I've ever lived in (or visited either).
