It is...

Spring. Yesterday went for a walk in't countryside at a place called Entwistle just north of Bolton. Entwistle is a pub called the Strawbury Duck a row of ten houses and the station. To stop the train you tell the driver beforehand. To catch the train in Entwistle you have to wave it down. Is that quaint or what? I'd have preferred a mighty lever attached one of those arms that go up and down, and maybe a bell but Entwistle is even lower tech than that. Entwistle, not low tech but no tech. I might submit that as a town motto. Maybe win a prize.
