Me too Denis, never been to a football match, hate cricket...... Actually, I don't mind watching some of the indoor cycling.....

If you can find a team with the nickname 'the wheelbarrows' you've got a hat-trick.

Sadly, whilst there's a team from Barrow, they are "The Bluebirds"!

Sounds idyllic Clicker

 

Meanwhile, back to the topic:-

 

Just a few miles downriver from me is the site of the old Woolwich Arsenal, built centuries ago and the origin of the 'Arsenal' football team, nicknamed 'The Gunners'.  This was taken waaaay back in 2013, whilst meandering around the site. 

I don't know why it's been fenced in, I suspect it was going through 'one of them phases' and threatening to run over visitors toes, if they tried to climb on it.....

Voting Now Open. To be honest when I first saw this theme I thought it was probably one of the hardest for a while, yet we had 12 entries in all and a very varied range of images, at that. So well done everyone.
