I like old buildings and new ones. Planning, places, built environment, urbanism, architecture, heritage, and design stuff. Humanist. Scooterist. Set sail in Yorkshire, now washed up in Bristol. Opinions probably someone elseβs.

Happy 2026! To start the year, here's a tree ring chiton, a 5cm ocean mollusk that sticks to rocks. Instead of having obvious eyes on a head, it's got 100s of tiny eyes embedded in the hard plates on its back, each with a rock crystal to focus light. Its top is one big eye spying on the world above
