One lane, three views

fishyfisharcadeLeave a comment

All three of today’s pictures were taken while walking along a narrow lane that led me out of Whitwell and towards the main road (the A619, or Clinthill Lane) and from there, back to where I’d parked my car in the layby in front of Whitwell Woods. The weather was fine and I had to remove my fleece long before I reached the road.

I like the middle shot the best. The power pole almost feels like it’s beckoning me closer, and then point the way I need to go.

In a shady spot

There is a house behind that tree. You can just about make it out…

Something good that happened today…

I was told today that I’ve been successful in keeping my job, which is a huge relief.

The relief and gratitude is, however, considerably tempered by the fact that lots of my colleagues have not been so fortunate and will be leaving the team (and possibly the business) in the near future, which is horrible. I’ve been in that position myself, and it was awful. I expect that all of them will be able to find new jobs given the line of business we are in and their hands on experience, but it’s still not a happy situation for them to be put in through no fault of their own. They are all good people and I will really miss them.
