P J Posted December 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Where was that winter scene in Warrington? It was In Sankey Valley Park on Sunday morning, alongside the canal. It is just a scruffy old weed but because the frost had got to it it became lovely, hope for us all then eh? It wasn't really an entry to the competition Gary just a wintery picture to help set the mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P J Posted December 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 That weed looks like cow parsley. Thanks Peter. hers a pic of the lock bridge in Sankey valley. and for those who think I may be a bit puddled check out this guy. he is fishing through the only bit of unfrozen canal in the area which was about 3 square feet in size. They are made of pretty stern stuff these anglers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P J Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I'm sorry folks but it appears I have jinxed the weather, its not stopped raining since I asked for wintery pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P J Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 That fishing picture is fantastic. Well done. I should entitle it "The Sankey Inuit" I went and checked and there was literally a 3 foot diameter hole in the ice, the only unfrozen water around . The man has my admiration and probably anti freeze for blood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P J Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Peter I saw another angler in the same place this morning, he was a little more coy than the Inuit but I managed to get a poor picture from distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P J Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I can see you selling these to Cheshire Life. If you can sell any of my pictures feel free and any money you raise can go to a charity of your choice. I think you may struggle though.

Good to see you have entered into the spirit of the topic Keith It would be nice if you could keep your trolling to a more suitable area.

Bazj Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Ignore them PJ and stick to your fantastic photo posts. Why they can't stick to pratting about in the sports section is beyond me! I will try and find a nice wintery picture to post although I am off to Scotland tomorrow for a few days and maybe I can find something to point the old box browny at up there!
