On Monday evening the sunset, pictured here at the junction of Preston Road and Gainsborough Green, coloured the clouds in the sky.

This evening, waves of high cloud could be seen above St Helen’s Church.

Last night as I walked, across the Market Place, the sky looked strange and mysterious after the sun had gone down.

It is always good to walk on solid earth and see that we still have lots of telephone and post boxes. They may not get used as much nowadays, but we may need them one day – after we tire of mobile phones, email, facebook, twitter and snapchat.
