I've never heard of Bradford Pear trees - do they literally bear pears? There is a town called Bradford near to Leeds (about 15 miles away) which was renowned for its woollen industry but now has an enormous Asian population.
When I enlarged this picture to have a closer look at the BPs, it was quite scarey - the cars were on the wrong side of the road!

P.S. As I think you will see I appear to have somehow given myself the name of Leedslass but, for the time being, I will continue to sign off with simple Anne :-)
I talked a little about Bradford Pears a few days ago when I posted photos of all the things in bloom. Here the right side of the road is the right side to drive on. You crazy brits drive on the wrong side.
I received a lovely little book about Yorkshire from a very sweet lady in Leeds. Thank you so much!

By the way, how's the back?

Beautiful! The snow is only melting a bit in Ottawa, meanwhile...
ReplyDeleteGlad you got the book - it was just a little something that showed pictures of the county in which I live. We Yorkshire folk call it God's own county.
