Altrincham Trip

Had to lug Archie's "Wishbone" sculpture over to the Air Gallery in Altrincham yesterday. Hazel's work fitted neatly into her pocket so wasa bit more managable! He'd made a very nice but heavy wooden slimline crate to protect it so that made it awkward for getting on and off the train. Thankfully the train wasn't too crowded although a women near us sounded like she was coughing up buckets of phlegm! Nice. Hopefully it was Covid germs she was spreading around. Needless to say we were the only ones wearing masks. Aftr we'd delivered the art we went shopping around the town. Didnt find much in the way of bargains. Most of the foodie shops seemed rather meat orientated . In the end we shared an egg mayo sandwich from Boots to tide us over. Hazel bought some advertising thimbles from one charity shop.No photos so you'll have to imagine a thimble with Fish Paste enamelled onto it. Or whatever it was it was advertising. I forget what exactly. On the way home we spotted the new pylons by the TATA factory- all complete now and waiting for cables to be attached. Whoopee!
