Autumn Photos of Slough, Berkshire | September 2020

It is the end of September which means it’s time for a #sloughitsnotsobad round-up. For those of you who don’t know what this is, this is my hashtag on Instagram for locals to share their pretty photos of Slough and the surrounding areas, the aim being to spread a bit of positivity. September brought us an extended summer with extra warm sunny days and the last of the summer flowers in bloom.

I will share some of your photos from September here.

Monksfield Recreation Ground Mosaic

The sundial in Monksfield Recreation ground is so pretty. Although some of the mosaic tiles have broken and it’s grubby in places – I still think it’s beautiful. I love all the time phrases that are included as well. #monksfieldrecreationground #britwell #slough #sloughitsnotsobad #sundial #britwellsundial #time

Some pictures from last week Open Mic evening organised by @the_innerverse_. I was not only inspired by everyone’s creativity but also felt so welcomed. Thank you @coxyflow and all the performers for letting me flash your eyes with my camera. I can’t wait to attend future open mics 😁. #openmic #spokenword #spokenwordpoetry #spokenwordartist #eventslough #eventsloughborough #sloughobserver #evening #event #eventphotography #slough #sloughitsnotsobad

The hanging baskets were looking this year… until the last few days when it got cold and I forgot to keep watering them… #hangingplants #hangingbaskets #daviesbrothersnursery #slough #sloughlife #flowers #sloughitsnotsobad #endofsummer

Flowers along the Bath Road

Walked up to Argos this morning on the Bath Rd .Took me back to my lockdown afternoon strolls . Still plenty of flowers about . The lavender smelt heavenly but I wasn’t too sure about the artificial greenery outside of the O2 building ! #sloughtradingestate #sloughitsnotsobad #slough #offices #flowers #lavender #lonza #o2

My tribute to local #heritage on #heritageopendays2020. This is Saint Laurence Church, ⛪ Slough's oldest building, since the Norman time, just down the road where I live.

Slough Walks

View this post on Instagram

On Friday we went for a walk past Max's school then we went on a walk. We went to Salt Hill Park for a bit which is amazing now they have taken away all the gated bits of playground. It just looks so much more open! Plus the trains going passed make it Ideal for Max and his love of trains 🚆. I then somehow convinced them to come on a walk with me and we walked by the little stream and under the railway bridge, which is awesome for making echo noises. When we walked out we found Baylis Park which I've never been in before! And then found our way back home. This rose bush/tree was on our way out and i just loved it! 🥰 #slough #sloughitsnotsobad #sloughparks #daywiththekids #parktrips #daysout

Baylis Park War Memorial

An afternoon stroll on my day off … re visited my lockdown route through Salt Hill and Baylis Parks and through to the war memorial . Lovely walk only spoilt by the few groups of elderly men who clearly couldn’t count past 6 or thought the rules didn’t apply to them 😳#baylispark #baylispond #baylismemorialgardens #sloughwarmemorial #ducks #tree #sloughitsnotsobad #sloughparks

Poetry in Slough

View this post on Instagram

You got a friend in me For the Bubble bath shark that bleeds, with glee Or our Queen of quartz, sharing loves sequestered energy A spoon fed sleep Watches heaven breathe 48 hours of soul soaked unity You got a friend in me… Grey cells are tingling Intuition bells are singing Eye maps indicators are ringing Everything tastes of tomorrow You're my favourite place to be Walking with poised pinched fingers As the new world smiles with eyes The angst creeps under sacred skin Climbing past passions dreams Nothing can choke the Gods within We won't be backed against the night Children of chaos Raising our candles high Dark becomes light with a guide by your side Pouring wounds into tunes Turning tepid rain into a volcanic monsoon Melting doubt and security Boying out bravado, for the tiresome and see-through Embracing a future no one can see Because you got a friend in me A friend that sees #innerpeace #sloughitsnotsobad #slough #poem #poetryfromtheheart #loveislove #poetartist #poetsofinstagram #poesias
