I went downtown with my friend John who I hadn't seen in at least 10 years. We walked around the city and took photos together. It was a very enjoyable visit. I took about 300 photos and after sorting through them all and after editing them, I saved 134 pictures. I thought I would post some of the pictures that I took of hanging baskets and flowers around town tonight.
The old part of Ruthin lies on a hill. This is St. Peter's Square at nightfall, so the lights of The Boars Head are already on.
Beautiful floral hanging baskets at the local village pub.They even serve real ale,what more could anyone want.Situated in Chepstow next to the historic castle and the River Wye.
Taken from the top deck of a Route 97 bus, the replacement of an old cinema comes along nicely in Walthamstow at 'Bell Corner'.
Today at the flower nursery pumpkin picking with the grandkids, they also had Halloween animated figures and many rooms set up with all kinds of objects and ornaments for Halloween and Christmas.
A couple of the hanging baskets attached to the clock tower at the southern end of Chesham High Street.
One of the local pubs just over the bridge.
Nearby are small shops to visit and more.
The inn has seven en suite bedrooms, each with colour television, telephone, tea and coffee tray and hair drier.
In selecting your bedroom, you can choose to overlook the river at the front of the house, or the green fields backed by the mountains at the rear of the house.
Besides the dining-room, there is a large lounge with an open fire and two attractive small bars.
The Tanronnen has long held a reputation for its high standard of cuisine and the homely and cosy atmosphere. Packed lunches are provided on request. The inn is open all year round and the dining-room is open to non-residents.
One of the narrow streets in Caernarfon.
Caernarfon is a royal town, community and port in Gwynedd, Wales, with a population of 9,852. It lies along the A487 road, on the eastern shore of the Menai Strait, opposite the Isle of Anglesey. The city of Bangor is 8.6 miles to the north-east, while Snowdonia fringes Caernarfon to the east and south-east.
Need warmer weather before the hanging baskets and flowers can be attached.
So a bit bare at the moment!!!
Llanberis is a village, community and electoral ward in Gwynedd, northwest Wales, on the southern bank of the lake Llyn Padarn and at the foot of Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales.
I do love Brachycomes, such unassuming low maintenance little flowers. You don't even need to deadhead them. These were in one of our hanging baskets last Summer. Processed with Topaz Studio 2 for Sliders Sunday HSS!

"Fuchsia (/ˈfjuːʃə/, FEW-shə) is a vivid purplish red color, named after the color of the flower of the fuchsia plant, which was named by a French botanist, Charles Plumier, after the 16th-century German botanist Leonhart Fuchs. The first recorded use of fuchsia as a color name in English was in 1892."
I just realized I've been misspelling this word wrong my entire life, which is very disturbing because I've always been an excellent speller (let's not bring up all the typos.) The Victorians saw these blooms as representing maturity, confidence, and abundance. Native to South America and New Zealand, fuchsia are one of the most cultivated ornamental plants in the world, and are most commonly displayed in hanging baskets.

In daylight Streptocarpus caulescens bobs about in a hanging pot swaying in the breeze. They are eye catching because of their colour and constant movement. Evening and a camera flash reveal there is more to treat the eye — sparkling iridescence — the joys of wandering about in the dark with a macro lens, worthy camera and a flash.
The Dickens Inn is an original warehouse building near Tower Bridge dating back to the 18th century. It is thought to have been built in the early 1700s as a tea factory or a local brewery.
Years later, it was converted into a tavern, with sawdust strewn floors and no bottled or canned beer would have been stocked. Diners also enjoyed candlelit meals on the balconies; this practice has been phased out due to modern fire safety regulations!
All 120 tonnes of The Dickens Inn was moved 70 meters east to make room for a new housing development.
The original timbers, tailboards, and ironwork were used in the restoration and the building was reconstructed in the style of a three-story balconied inn of the 18th century.
In May 1976, The Dickens Inn was opened by the grandson of Charles Dickens, Cedric Charles Dickens.
