A few days of sunrises and sunsets. Faraway spring tides, ice pops, warm pack ups, factor 50 and beautiful, beautiful North Yorkshire. Reighton Gap is a slice of perfection 💙

Dear Spaceman,
what brings you
to Hornsea?
I’m here for
the charity shops
and a bite to eat
Floral Hall isn’t far,
their cheesy paninis
go down a treat…

🥶One of my favourite photographs I took of St. Mary's Abbey in York reminds me of Camus: "In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer." 🌞

I'm eating toast with the ferocity of an 18yo me who's just got in from a house party after Spiders. Shout out quick if you want any. I'm making my way towards the crust with alarming speed.

Two outstanding bookshouts, both recently listened to on Audible. 'Ootlin' by #JenniFagan narrated by Isis Hainsworth and 'The Coast Road' by #AlanMurrin narrated by Jessica Regan. Both incredible, palpable and necessary.

Happy Imbolc! This old Celtic festival marks the start of spring, the beginning of the lambing season, and may have been dedicated to a goddess called Brigit, later St Brigid - the first female saint in Irish literature.
