Excellent! Even I will be giving up Weatherfield for Walford tonight! |
I thought it was more to do with the daffodils than the actual canal itself; maybe it is a carefully balanced mixture of both? |
Thanks to the prgramming geniuses at BBC America I won't be seeing that documentary on the miracle of the headless EastEnd publican. |
You know what DG? I get the Picc tube from Hammersmith to Alperton every day for the first half of my journey home from work - and I always stare out of the window at the urban view as the train pulls into Alperton. On this part of the line - the track is high up above the roads and houses - and just before the train gets into the Alperton - it sort of "flies over" the Grand Union Canal adjacent to an industrial estate. It's easy to see why the location was chosen - it's surrounded by private industrial estate - is quite secluded and has very wide and "picturesque" towpath etc. |
Very informative, one thing to note that during the summer, some of the canal routes does become infested with little flying insects/bugs in water in such a large number that the surroundings do not feel safe to inhabit. I am sure the food supply was covered/sealed properly during transportation of goods in those days.
