It's always sunny in Yorkshire, except when it's not

Back in the summer, I was on my way to watch football in Tadcaster. There were bank holiday engineering works, and transport mayhem had been predicted, so I left home in plenty of time. I need not have worried, and found myself in Leeds with a couple of hours to spare for a wander with the camera. I therefore did what any self-respecting person finding themselves in Yorkshire should do and started walking back towards Lancashire.

The Leeds and Liverpool Canal was built to serve industry, but now provides green space in the city.

Where the canal crosses under the western approach of Leeds station, there is a mural telling us of Yorkshire values.

It is where I found the title for this post. It is a valid point.

Swans are always good for a photo.

A mile or so out of the city, someone had left some advice.

It soon became apparent it would be a long walk home, so it was time to get back to the city, and the bus to the football.

On the way back, I passed Emmerdale - I remember when it was a farm, but like so much else it has become a fairly anonymous warehouse, one that did not even merit a photo. Up to this point, I had enjoyed its always being sunny in Yorkshire, but it demonstrated when it is not with a ten minute downpour, which brightened up the roses. White is traditional in these parts, but I had to work with what I found in Park Square.

On the sporting, and LGBT, theme, Olympic Boxing champion Nicola Adams has the post boxes for her gold medals in London and Rio.

It is probably not that well known that Leeds has two Bishops. The Catholic one has a Cathedral, neatly tucked away opposite the Art Gallery.

The Anglican Bishop has three cathedrals -  none of them in Leeds.

The rest of the pictures from the day can be seen on Google Photos here for those who like to see apertures and the suchlike, and on Facebook with some captions here.

Remember, it's always sunny in Yorkshire - except when it's not.
