We had a bright sunny morning at the start of the very first Bedford Clanger today, and probably for the first time in my life I went inside a tent in March!! on the left is the moment I saw some runners headed my way at Oakley, reassuring me that I was in the right place . . and here's Rima, dragging her tyre around the Clanger, with evidence of having had to make a sudden stop at the first of the bridges at Oakley . . there was a lot of running going on all day . . on the left is Check point 1 . . and to the right some happy runners closing in on the bridges at Kempston . . we weren't the only ones having fun out running . . and whilst I was taking photos of the runners there were plenty of other things attracting my attention the clouds were making pretty pictures in the sky . . and on the water . . reminders of our industrial and agricultural past . . with the windmill near Oakley and the bridge at Kempston . . the beauty that nature achieves that we aspire to . . a lone sapling . . reeds bowing in the breeze . . and the contrasts of colours . . I want to make some remark about IKEA in relation to the green sign but the other sign reminds me of where I'll end up if I do . . so perhaps best not to mention this early example of utility privatisation then!! |
