parkrun: it's good to be back
parkrun returned to England on 24th July, 2021 after a gap of 16 months during the Covid-19 restrictions but the return was delayed until 31st July at Millhouses Park because of another event there the previous week.
207 runners, joggers and walkers are here setting off on the first of three laps on this 5k route at Millhouses Park.
Bears of Sheffield: #57 Beartanical
#57 of 61 big bear sculptures, this one was decorated by Vanessa Scott and is located in Graves Park.
Beartantical was inspired by the artist's many adventures and relaxing days spent exploring the hills and woodland surrounding the city, and the afternoons she has spent gazing at the beautiful star shaped plants at the botanical gardens.

Brexit Bonus, Sainsbury's, Archer Road, Sheffield
Sainsbury's are doing their best to make it look as though the shelves aren't empty, but crisps and other potato products have been especially badly hit by supply chain problems in 2021. Apparently, a lot of our crisps come from Ireland. Yes, really, we can't even get crisps from Ireland when we were promised that everything would be better after Brexit.

Man in the kiosk at Graves Park Animal Farm
He looked rather bored despite his santa hat. Midweek business was sparse. I asked him if I could take his photo and he kindly agreed.
