The only 'out & about' photos, I have from today, are some old prints that I scanned, that date back to between 1986 & 1993
I did take this late this morning, after a ride though
A few of the pot-holes, on my regular route to/home from work
Birkwood Road
Altofts
(heading into the village, from 'Stanley Ferry')
Part of the series of pot-holes, essentially on the 'riding line', for a right-turn onto High Green Road
Go to the right of them, & it's risking getting clipped by opposing traffics mirrors
Stay to the left, & following traffic often attempts a last-minute overtake, even with a hand signal!
The Cottages in my photograph are just beyond the Methodist Church in the GeoGraph link (red brick building beyond the Robin Hood)

This one was, about 200 yards behind where I stopped, but was filled in last week
That was a fair old depth!

A mate of mine drives top end cars to new owners, car shows and so on and has sent me these:
Are they free with the car?

[QUOTE 5142935, member: 9609"]so does he deliver the car then ride home ? wouldn';t have thought the new owner would be overly impressed with a 200k car being delivered with a bike suckered onto the roof.[/QUOTE]
Delivers the car then uses public transport to get home.
I presume this was driven to a car show or dealer rather than a new owner. Or perhaps to a potential new owner who’s into bikes for an extended test drive.
One thing he told me made me smile - 99% of the Aston Martins he drives are right hand drive automatics. When he went to the AM factory to do their ‘driving test’ he had to do it in a left hand drive manual!

I could see the snow up there, from the top-floor of PGH this morning
Then from my attic window (& the top of 'PineApple Hill', when I drove daughter into Wakefield, at tea-time)

It marked the boundary the other side of the hill was a winter wonderland.
