Blog of the Week

As is so often the case, sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. With this week’s pick of the posts, Hyde Daily Photo blog ,you get exactly what it says – a different picture of Hyde every day.
And it you find it hard to believe there’s enough items of interest for daily updates from any town, then check it out – all of life is there.
Everything from the mundane sight of a road junction to the people that go about thier business in the town, this reportage from Hyde is a fascinating document of everyday life.
The picture on this page is from earlier this month and is posted to mark Ricky Hatton’s plans to turn a former printworks into a gymnasium for the town.
The blog is the work of 61-year-old Gerard who also blogs at Ackworth born. It has already caught the eye of the local blogosphere having been shortlisted in this year’s Manchester Blog Awards in the best neighbourhood blog category.
We will be hunting around for blogs or websites to feature here, add to our blogroll and include in the e-view page of the M.E.N on Saturday so, if you’ve got one to nominate, contact us here or submit a link below. The only criteria is that they have some connection with Manchester.
