We're oop North.Here's a pic of Lancaster Canal with a Heron which was playing Chicken with Oz.
Our local East Angular Heron flies off when we get 100 yards away but this was a hard Northern Heron who would be out on a cold December night with just a thin T Shirt and a packet of tabs stuffed into the armhole.

That's not really the North. I can see blue sky. I've been in Darlington for 2 months and have experienced 6 blue skies. 'Fess up. You're sill in sunny Norfolk aren't you!.
Perhaps that heron's a lass in which case it's bare legs, mini skirt, stilletos and boob tube.
If that's the north, where's the icebergs on the canal, eh?
"...this was a hard Northern Heron "
Probably one of the ceramic ones then Rog - they're ever so lifelike, aren't they??
;?

Hotter: Lancaster..but it has been very murky since Heron Day.
Kaz: Thank goodness you are a Northern Twitcher and can supply all these extra details!
Dave: The Icebergs are the nice Jewish Family on the narrow boat.
Mort: I thought it wasn't moving very fast. Heron 'E Must Rush. er, probably not...
You're in the garden centre. It's a plastic heron.
Sx
...you'd probably need a *crane* to shift something like that Rog...

(Good job I double checked that - I'd typed, "you'd need a crane to shit something like that..." Now, *that* would take some doing, wouldn't it??
p.p.s wv: quitive
ive quit more times than I can remember...
We've got canals in London, too.
We almost went for a walk by one in June. Then decided we'd rather go to Sainsbury's.
The North wins hands down.
The Lancaster canal is beautiful! Made the trip years ago.
Scarlet: Yes...I think it was in Peckham!
Morton: One minute it was there and the next minute it flaming goes!
Geoff: Sainsburies are normally built near canals so it isn't too far for brainless morons to throw the trolleys in.
John: You can still only get as far as the M6 tho!
Where is that stretch of canal? It looks a bit more interesting than the ones round here.
Lancaster to Galgate, a dead end branch since they built the bloody M6 straight across it without a tunnel. However it is now linked to the main network near Preston so you can do coast to coast.
