Mill

A busy day with various missions to accomplish. The first involved a trip to Salts Mill, so we walked along and down the Bank and then across the canal and the river into Saltaire.

Much is being made of Hockney's 80th birthday: party balloons everywhere and free badges being thrust upon the kids. We achieved what we wanted to and returned back to Roberts Park where the kids tumbled around before heading back home for lunch.

9yo was being ferried to a swimming party in the afternoon, so 12yo and I took the opportunity to go into town to watch the new Spiderman movie. It was a fresh take on the story and the attempts to weave it into the Marvel Cinematic Universe were not too overbearing. The Stan Lee cameo was a highlight, as always.

Today's image comes from our walk down the Bank - I'm sure I've shared this view of Salts Mill before, but the Wood Pigeon added a certain something, I thought.
