Coventry Winter Wonderland!

The Coventry canal this morning frozen by the Costa Del Longford as Philip calls it not a duck in sight.

Would you be able to walk on the canal do you think Morgana? It looks like a road on that photo.

Well, you will not be getting any wintery scenes from me folks but I do enjoy reading about your winter tales and good to know you have survived your ordeals. There is a certain member who we have not heard from yet but I am sure he has a tale to tell so DRIVE CAREFULLY EVERYONE

Would you be able to walk on the canal do you think Morgana? It looks like a road on that photo. At the top here it looked slightly thinner, but on the previous photo it looked as though you could as cans were stuck fast on the canal one half tilted as if it was being poured, daughter was going to stand on it, she can't swim so decided not to I dared her to but she chickened out, noticed more rubbish in the canal since the football started over here, also along the pathway to the Ricoh off the canal most times is full of smashed glass of bottles so I have to dodge them in case I get a puncture in my wheelchair, my daughter and granddaughter walking down the path way back of the Ricoh it's lovely to look at the wild life and shrubs down there.

In case anyone was wondering, the graffiti on the bridge is a reference to a music sharing website which was shut down by the authorities.

Thank you Dutchman it's on someone's shed too on the canal, I was wondering who it was, now I know.

Hi all By eleven yesterday, 'the sun had got his hat on, hip hip hip hurray'. The view from our home as the rays of sunlight turned the tree branches into silver.

Thought you may like this photo, taken just outside my house last year, looks the same again now. Colin.

That's lovely Colin. I have commented before on the Forum I love trees. They can change all through the year. What sort is the one you have shown, do you know?

Don't quote me but I think it's a silver birch. Glad you liked it Dreamtime. Wanna see some more chrissy ones?

This is the big oak tree at the side of our house, again taken last year . Who needs tinsel?

Well it is the silly season, I have to put up the decoration or else, lol.

Just a couple from this morning walking into Earlsdon, the Frank Whittle plaque and general view alongside Earlsdon Avenue North on Hearsall Common, these phone cameras come in handy when you see something you like

Glad to see you have entered the spirit of Christmas. Isn't it a pity they have done away with chimneys as I am sure you would have Santa either falling in or climbing out! That looks lovely, the grandchildren will be thrilled. Roll on Chrissy Make mine a Bailey's.

Long 11am shadows and a frozen and slippy track up Purlieu Lane in Kenilworth - well it's near Coventry
