NUNEATON A NUN TOO FAR PERHAPS

Today as promised I visited Leamington Spa and Nuneaton, I think I've now got them out of my system and will revisit 2020, I thought I may create a look ahead list for places that don't really warrant yearly visits and these two certainly don't but I seem to forget in between and then a year on go ahead and get bored to death. Leamington was the better of the two and the weather was more constant cloud as expected although it was threatening to break through with sun and more mild than of late. Nothing new since my last visit, traffic despite leaving home before 5.30 am was still staggering, standstill through the Midlands as ever.

I was wrapped up there having a coffee by 1030 then the grind through Coventry to Nuneaton where the weather was edging between cloud, sun and rain, a bit of all three. I was ok in my usual spot opposite the exit from the bus station then a post van went through the rising bollards and the whole thing went up the creek, the bollards never rose again but the loud message saying bollards rising beep, beep,beep just went on for the rest of the afternoon so I had to move down to the roundabout and get my shots of them coming out past the car park. It's a dreadful place, a very few friendly drivers bless them, some very dubious characters about, not much English heard. The traffic back looked awful, I was a few minutes short of what I wanted but needed to get on the road as I have my course at Chester on a Monday evening and have dinner about 5-5.30.

Tomorrow is still up in the air. I did get some of the plastering done when I got back so the decorating could be said to be ongoing albeit slowly but weather looks worse as the week goes on so maybe a chance then meanwhile out filming when I can. Photos Leamington.
