66 Saturday 1 May Summerseat and Bury
Simon wanted to spend some pocket money so we went to Bury ( which still has an HMV ). This was influenced by the East Lancashire Railway reopening so the plan was go to Summerseat, do some more filming on the Irwell as we walked down to Bury then catch a train back. The day was lovely and we had a great walk, the only snag being that the train back was at 12.50 so we had to rush the last bit.
When we got to Bolton Street station, we were informed that we couldn't buy singles to Summerseat, They were only selling reopening special returns to Ramsbottom even though the train would stop at Summerseat. This didn't make any sense and certainly wasn't advertised on their website. We decided to get the bus instead. This meant we had more time in Bury but we never got to HMV. We passed a record shop called Wax and Beans instead and Simon found something he wanted there.
We caught the bus back to Summerseat, did a little shopping at Summerseat Garden Centre then went to a chippy Simon had noticed at Greenmount. Unfortunately it was closed but there was a sandwich shop open nearby so we bought lunch from there ( average ).
The filming we did will be linked here in due course.
