Weekend stuff

Just the usual really, Friday I went into Manchester to the Christmas markets, very jolly, Saturday I shopped in town then went for my walk up through Anderton and Marbury.
Today I walked to Davenports, 12.5 miles. Cock a leekie, cheese sandwich and a slab of cake so vast I had to bring half of it home with me. Two sets of kingfishers on the canal, the ones by Saltersford tunnel were particularly busy, diving and swooping in the water. Elderly black lady who lives in a canal side cottage finally deigned to come talk to me. Even older black and white matriarch at Davenports was sunning herself on a doorstep and let me pet her. Tubby ginger boy at The Stanley Arms gave me dirty looks for disrupting his mousie hunt.
