out and about
I apologised in the post before my tree following post below (read it here or scroll down) as I wanted to say sorry for being a bad blogger....
I am trying to catch up so bear with me.
A few weeks ago we went to see an exhibition at The Lowry in Salford.
'Here's one I made earlier' tells the story of the BBC's Children's Broadcasting over the past 90 years.
I found these sketchbooks used in the scenery of the Warhorse play. I plan to get my year 4 children to have a go at this sort of artwork in the coming months.
I have been busy too.
Using my workbook as inspiration for a piece of needlework.
We have also been on some local walks.
This one was above Hebden Bridge and Heptonstall.
It is very autumnal.
These are a few Instagram shots from the walk.
We also went to the Gold Cup at Oulton Park.
I will be back soon.
Oh my goodness, brought back some memories with those pics of early childrens TV!! I loved the Clangers... Slight degree of nostalgia for the days when choice was limited and there was a point when broadcasting stopped in the day - I don't watch much at all these days but it is so easy just to sit in front of any old rubbish at all hours! Oh for the test card... :-) x
ReplyDeleteCrikey Lyn you have been busy. I love the look of that exhibition - what a blast from the past! It certainly is Autumnal now - we have already lit the fire a couple of times - but how wonderful that it's being accompanied by such mild weather. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the hare x Jane
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely to catch up on what you have been doing, especially nice to see Humpty and your embroidery rabbit, he really is beautiful!! xx
ReplyDeleteA smashing post Lyn. The Lowry looks superb, it's now on my to do list. Great pics too. I love the military vehicle warning, ha, ha.

Lovely to catch up with you, love your bunny. The sign about military vehicles was funny.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Watch with Mother - the woodentops were my favourites.
ReplyDeleteLoving the exhibition photos, I forced my boys to watch Bagpuss and the Clangers when they were little, just so I could trip down memory lane. Your hare stitching is looking amazing! Bethxx
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great exhibition. My American niece and her little girl love Charlie and Lola. Great photos of the countryside and I was very interested in the old bike and sign, which gave me a chuckle. Great post!
ReplyDeleteHumpty! I loved Hector's House.
ReplyDeleteLove the exhibition photos! Ros
ReplyDeleteLove everything in this post - especially the walk. Youu've captured the turn in the season so well. xxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteHave fond memories specially of the Wooden Tops. The first of your walk pictures is fantastic. All your walk pictures make me want to move house.
