Safely gathered in. by happypat

Safely gathered in.

Wheat stored & dried off the fields.

Harry the hen boy retrieved this bike out of the skip, some people throw anything away!

Three good things:
1. A wet afternoon spent on the back seat of the cinema with a Ben & Jerry's hot chocolate.
2. Looking forward to a day out tomorrow at the Westmoreland Show.
3. Quick visit tonight from Cathy & Lydia on their way to callanetics.
The bike looks like a great find. Our eldest son's first bike came from a friend who had rescued it from the tip. It was then painted up for our other two children. A great little bike. Glad to hear all is safely gathered in.

@busylady This one just had a peddle missing Judith.

Excellent - and an excellent bit of re-cycling - boom boom! Number 1 sounds just the job though I think I might dose off today - anything good? I fancy going to see 'Rush'.

@judithg I should have gone to see Rush but chose' About Time' the latest Richard Curtis film with Bill Nighy. Rather stilted dialogue I thought but harmless enough if a bit odd. the songs were the best though some lovely music & it whiled away an afternoon very pleasantly.

How crazy to throw away a bike. Needed rescuing for sure. Well hopefully it wasn;t stolen. It looks in quite good condition. Like your composition.

@happypat Bill Nighy usually makes a film worth watching....

I don't know why but for me, the bike just makes this shot!

nice composition.

great photo Pat lovely Pov

Marvelous composition and so glad you salvaged the bike...looks like a good one

GREAT photo and good harvest all round! Isn't it awful what some people throw away!
September 11th, 2013  
The bike shows the scale of that vast amount of grain. Lovely coloured grain and a great rescue bike!

Terrific composition.

Can't believe this throwaway society - it is too much trouble to repair then sell something! Callanetics sound very interesting, I had to google it. I will investigate more for my deep muscle power!

Can't believe someone threw that bike out. Very nice shot :)
September 11th, 2013  
Great composition with the bike- who would throw that away-
September 11th, 2013  
Nicely composed. Looks like a decent bike!
September 11th, 2013  
Lovely composition. Fav! The bike really shows the scale and adds interest to your shot. I love the little window/air slots at the top. I have to ask about "Harry the hen boy" though ...who? what? why? :)

Love the composition here
September 12th, 2013  
Wow, that looks almost new
September 12th, 2013  
Uh oh - when we find a bike thrown out - when it is as nice as this - it is usually stolen!!! What a lovely harvest. Interesting non-sequitur subjects.
September 12th, 2013  
Great shot

What a great feeling to have the wheat off of the fields and in storage.
Congratulations to whoever has this done!
The bike gives a sense of how much wheat is there - a great marker for proportion.

I can't believe that bike was found in a skip..rich pickings, great shot btw.

@farmreporter Next to this bay of wheat is another bay with barley in it Wendy.
September 12th, 2013  
A great composition. How good it must be to have all the wheat store.
I went to see 'About time' but didn't enjoy it. It is what our family call a wet Sunday afternoon film.

@jtookey150 I agree Jean, I had high hopes after the reviews in the papers although it had poor reviews on the cinema website so wasn't surprised....an OK film.
September 12th, 2013  
Great looking bike and a nice pile of dry wheat.
