After a brief lull (maybe for their holidays?) the totems are haunting me again.
At a recent lunch engagement with friends, a new venue, I was surrounded.

They do turn up in the most unexpected places.  I even found one on the lower slopes of Kinder (to follow).
Glad the FPV was an easy fix. Fingers crossed that the test flight goes well.
Looking forward to some of the footage from Tuesday's expedition

They are cracking,   or at least amazing an army.    Good timing too.

Yes, there were cracks in most of them
We had a great lunch there too. Lovely canalside location. Near Lymm.
Next time, I'll take the drone.

Yesterday was an excursion to Bakewell. The lunch in Lymm was a couple of weeks ago.

Did you have a tart whilst you were there?

Pardon?  
They're called puddings by the Bakewell locals.
Yes I'm partial to a slice.  Mrs.B doesn't like the almond flavour.

Really,  so why does the rest of the country use the wrong name them?

It's a bit like the cream tea argument. Do you put the jam on the scone first, or the cream? Devon or Cornwall?
Everyone calls them Bakewell Tarts - unless they're from Bakewell

Wow, great shots Mr. B.    Those are some really amazing totems.  I still say you are a totem magnet.
