Who's A Pretty Boy Then?


The Nottingham Riviera is in full swing now that the schools have broken up for the summer.

Besides the now famous seaside sand, there are a number of rides and games for children to play on and enjoy. These two parrots are enjoying the action taking place in the Old Market Square. I don't know what they think of the many pigeons that fly around the area, from rooftop to rooftop. Jealousy perhaps, as they are stuck on this board of lights.

In Parrot Fashion


I popped along to the annual Hemlock Happening this afternoon, which took place at Bramcote Park.

There were a lot of stalls and things to do, which were mainly aimed at children. But there was a few bands on, and I bumped into loads of people that I know.  But the important thing was that it stayed sunny and warm.

One of the stalls was being run by Parrotaid, a charity to raise money for to help unwanted and abandoned parrots. The people that look after the birds had bought some along to show the visitors.

These two seemed to be enjoying the sunshine and attention that they were receiving from the visitors to the show.
