24deg and rising. Glass of wine by the mighty Irwell (upstream from the Sewage Works) A bloke fly fishing in his waders, a light breeze, birds singing and a glass of red. Only half way round my walk so just the one glass.🍷

Wasn’t there a football song with the words ‘by the banks of the river Irwell’ might be a reds song, sorry.

Daughter started at College yesterday, but every school day for 7 years we walked her over that Bridge to take her to primary School.

Few years ago, Boxing Day, the River was as high as the middle arch.

From the banks of the river Mersey

To the shores of Sicily

We will fight fight fight for the Wanderers

Until we win the football league.

To hell with Man United

To hell with Liverpool

We will fight fight fight for the Wanderers

Until we win the football league.

Same as, I can only remember that with Banks of the river...... in it

Just done a quick Google search. Seems my initial thoughts were correct. It’s a reds song. Maybe nicked from the scousers or vice versa. Whatever. I apologise. I also apologise for sharing this link.
