Yes, I remembered the controversy over the red road sign when I took the picture, yesterday. I walked from Aynho to King's Sutton via the canal, my 49th solo day trip since March 2020. Contrary to our fears, most of the village and canalside pubs survived the Lockdown and are back to normal.

This was the one I took in 2014: www.flickr.com/photos/14463685@N07/13495360035 - for me, a lifetime ago.

With your penchant for cloning out TV aerials, I'm surprised you didn't clone the road sign.

They're not the same. Aerials are hideously ugly (and there was one on the chimney, here), and inappropriate on period buildings of which in other respects the owners and/or the planning authorities have paid good attention to preserving the appearance) as are large, modern, flourescent road signs. But this small, traditional sign showing a parent and child is actually rather attractive, and the composition benefits from the dash of red.

I would agree in principle, but the parent and child cannot be seen in your photo, and it's simply an irritation. I wouldn't call it traditional either. In my traditional youth, we had a torch with the red triangle on top. www.flickr.com/photos/ayjay3/40077007324

I dare say you will be taking a trip to Kersey now?

Why Kersey, particularly? I revisited it during the Lockdown, not all that long ago -
and the other picture-postcard places in that area, and have no plans for now to do so again. Unlike when I discovered it in the 1970's, it's permanently cluttered up and spoiled by parked cars, all but one of which I PhotoShopped out of the shot, above.

This was it in 1975:

Didn't you notice the old school sign?

No. Where?

Kersey.

Wonderful series

Thanks for posting your wonderful picture to

Right. Now I understand. No, I won't be going there just for that.

As it says in the Good Book (Matthew 12:39) "A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign".

Well, this generation must be exceptionally wicked.
