I had to visit Tameside Hospital on Tuesday for a routine check-up - nowt much wrong with me - keep on taking the tablets - give up drinking tea - come back in four months.
It was a bitterly cold day with snow on the ground, but as I came out after my appointment I saw this chimney blowing out white smoke into the blue sky and thought "that could be my contribution to Skywatch Friday this week".
Great shot but...
ReplyDeleteyou have to give up tea?
Ask an English man to give up tea???
ReplyDeleteMurder.
Glad to hear all is well, I hope you get to drink decaf. I guess you could go herbal.
ReplyDeleteNice catch of the chimney, we don't see those anymore.
Great shot and lovely perspective, Gerald.
ReplyDeleteLowry would have had a balst with this image. I am always surprised to see these stacks still billowing smoke.
ReplyDeleteGlad to learn there's nowt much up Gerald! Can you drink Rooibos tea I wonder? My dear mum swears by it. She's 89.
ReplyDeleteI thought tea is good for you. Old hospitals are intriguing. Glad to hear all is well.
ReplyDeleteThat shot really draws the eye up high.
ReplyDeleteYes, I am a tea drinker too - after all, I went to school in Darjeeling, the Himalayan home of so many famous tea gardens.
Give up drinking tea! How awful. Your soul may be in danger. Properly brewed English Breakfast Tea is the cure for all known ills,possession by demonic ducks, audible digitised noise bats and vampire Herdwicks as Ladyboy Shadow will confirm.
ReplyDeletelooks pretty warm in the picture
ReplyDeleteOh! these guys kill you with restrictions.
i know that i am smoking to my death. But if restrictions are slapped on me i would die faster.
Nice shot I love chimneys just checked your list of topics for chimneys. Glad to hear you ok I drink coffee mostly so not worried by not having tea but if it had been coffee I would have sent letters of protest to someone
