This is incredibly boring, but this slightly incongruous wall has been down the road from me my whole life; about 6mo ago I found out it used to be part of a railway bridge and now I can't believe I never clocked it

I run past this building all the time and I am pretty sure the gate only unlocks if you have three chess piece shaped keys

Maybe this is purely down to me being an unrepentant Brave user, but the sheer size of these sponsored results has absolutely bent my head.

Look at it!

Tatton Park Run with the TCGS crew for a good cause.

Cheeky post-second-child 5k PB, and a lovely day and place to do it, even if I did have to dodge a trip of rutting deer
