Familiar Concerns

Familiar Concerns

100 years ago today, and the adverts in the Halifax Courier reflect familiar concerns. Keep warm this winter with a seal-lined motor coat, protect yourself during the flu season with Dr Beach's Essence, and "no general election is required" if you plump for Crossleys!

Sweet Bowmore

Sweet Bowmore

Sweet memories of a visit to Bowmore Distillery, just four years ago today. Or rather, pungent, citrus, stewed fruit with hints of damp wood and a very soft smoke, memories.

Salterhebble

Salterhebble

A messed-about version of a photo I originally took back in 1967 which shows the bottom of Salterhebble Hill and Exley Bank. So much has changed : the mill on the right (Nahum's Union Mills) is long gone, and the pub and many of the houses have now gone as well.
