New Energy in Northampton

Sustrans routes are not just good for cycling - pretty much every town in the UK now has its Sustrans route along the river or other such area. I was pleased to be able to use the one in Northampton to walk to an early meeting I had this week. A great feeling to find the office block straight off a riverside path, without having to go on the road at all.
I found these teasels down by the River Nene which [bizarrely] is pronounced "nen" in Northampton. Why? I asked. "Well they call it the "nene" in Peterborough for some reason. We call it the right way..."
Strange folk out east.
