Colne in Bloom

We recently had a nice wander around Colne in Lancashire and saw a number of planters out for Colne in Bloom.

This one in particular caught our eye!

We liked this one at Colne railway station as it had a nice train theme.

The Titanic Bed commemorated the ship and the band master Wallace Hartley who was born in Colne.

Spotting two other boats called 'Titanic'

Not to be ghoulish, but with a lot of media attention centreing on the 100th Anniversary of the ill-fated maiden voyage of RMS Titanic I thought I'd post a couple of snaps of two boats I've spotted on my travels that have been named Titanic!

Now, I'm not much of a seafarer, but if I was I don't think I'd be inclined to name my boat after it! I don't suppose it's a good idea to name a boat or ship The Mary Celeste either.
