Today we did go over to this pub in Oakenclough, Calderbank something or another. Ooo, they have a web-site. Well, who doesn't, eh? I think we got there some time between midday and 1pm. I had this gorgeous omelette affair, containing cheese, ham, tomatoes, mushrooms, red onion and maybe something else. I don't know. Portion of chips. M**** had some kind of toasted sandwich. A****** had mushed up everything, washed down with peach yoghurt (ours). They had two interesting looking bitters, so I went for something like 'Sky Rocket' or similar. Damn fine beer whatever it was. I feel like I should extol the virtues of this pub, as we read in some kind of pub guide that they don't get much business because of their location. But, erm . . . I don't really have time for that. Anyway, after lunch, we turned left out of the pub and drove . . . A few miles down the road, there's a T-junction, where we parked and then wandered down Snape Rake Lane, towards the River Brock.

So yeah, this area has warm memories for me, having camped there a few times, many, many years ago. We were wandering around there for quite some time, checking out familiar ground and exploring bits we had never been to. Oh, and check out the glider. In those last couple of photos, that was when we were heading back - you may be able to see Blackpool Tower in the distance.

First picture from the left is A****** at my parents' house and the other three are where we were back at Halton, and A****** was freaking out about the grass. He really didn't like crawling on it. Strange boy.
