Why did the ducks...

...cross the road?

Holmfirth Tech is one of the fringe venues for Art Week, and yesterday evening I at Soul Choir (held at the Tech) I saw a painting on the other side of the room that I really liked. There was no opportunity to have a closer look, so I went back this afternoon. It is indeed a very nice painting, and affordable, but I'm not the only person to like it, as it already had a red 'sold' dot on its label. Had a browse round the other paintings there, then went across the road to have another look at the main exhibition. 

After that went to Fair Trader to buy a hanging planter from one of the artists exhibiting there. Also bought two small 'pourers' made by the same person - for a while I've been looking for something in which to serve salad dressing, and these are just right. Luckily, MrM approved of my purchases!

We went out in the van this evening, and had to stop along the way while four Indian running ducks (I think!) crossed the road. By the time I'd grabbed my phone (camera), one had already gone into the farmyard.
