Former UK Army infantry and Police Firearms sergeant, now an instructor.

Hate racists, fascists and keep my beady eye on politics and the environment.
Absolutely agree.

A little #TreeClub entry from yesterday, captured at the lovely Wentworth Woodhouse estate in Yorkshire.

Gorgeously sunny and blustery, me snapping pictures of trees while my friend the amazing @hellingtonboots.bsky.social was running the Rotherham 10K and doing a fantastic job of it too! 💪🏻

So a couple of days very hard graft, the highlight without a doubt was as HOS for a Great Gatsby 1920's themed ball at the quite spectacular Ely Cathedral.

I woke across a huge range of locations but this has to be one of the most beautiful, I mean just LOOK at that ceiling! 😍

Today's #Legclub entry is sponsored by caffeine, bananas and a break from work to assist a friend on top secret mission 🤫😎

Forget this little incident did you?

PA have been infiltrated by extremists, attacking Police and company workers, damaging defence assets, that's NOT protest.

In other countries those actions can get you killed, PA supporters haven't even condemned these actions, protestors eh 🤷🏻‍♂️

Grow up, violence was used without remorse on the attack at Ebit systems, both Police and a company worker were assaulted using sledgehammers and whips.

Or do you have VERY selective memory?

Attacking defence assets IS a terrorist move and a very stupid one, extremists are within PA now, own it.

Hmm, ok are you being willfully ignorant?

This perhaps ring a bell?

Seems the Scottish independence fantasy crowd on BlueSky are just as snowflakey as they are on Twitter.

"We own ALL the resources" "England owes us everything" nonsense as usual

I love Scotland but these clueless imbeciles do nothing to advance the real independence voices who do make sense.

So back to the world of corporate security for a few days, just my luck to get the 3 hottest days of the week in a suit 🤷🏻‍♂️🥵

So today's #Legclub is sponsored by pinstripe, shiny dress shoes and (for me) good deodorant which no doubt some others will forget 🤮

So everyone, particularly @grumpybb.bsky.social and @dankaszeta.bsky.social

Am I hearing things or did the orange Shitgibbon in Chief come on to "God Save the King"? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well another mixed week of work ahead, 3 days of teaching normal people how to react in really nasty places including some self defence bits.

And then to Download Festival, muddy fields and keeping big names safe from the clamouring hoards.

The things we do to earn money eh 😂

Well a fun night of gig work, Foo Fighters UK / Royal Blood tribute gig, not a big crowd but great energy and keeping me on my toes around the mosh.

My smart arse sound engineer mate snapping a pic of me monitoring the crowd and titled with his usual acerbic wit, tap to see 😂

Certainly is

A chance encounter for my #TreeClub entry for today.

Gorgeous weather and this lovely character not wanting to conform to standard vertical trunk method, seemingly reaching up for the sun 😍😎

A pleasing alignment of straight and curve.

This is what's happens when one of your breakfast bananas has a sudden attack of the French artists about it 😎

A morning #Legclub from a very sunny Derby after a shocking shift yesterday.

Oh and a bit of Queen Vic too 😎

Today's #LegClub is a rapid pitstop in Yorkshire, coffee and a sarnie in Barnsley

See if the locals point at me and scream when they realise I'm from the glorious south 🤣

A cheeky #LegClub before work and a #Treeclub after too, the smaller tree mimics the building shape, must get a closer shot during the daytime.
March 2, 2025 at 11:54 PM
Civvie HoS gig in-between other stuff tonight at the O2 Arena

Phil Campbell and The Bastard Sons - Motorhead tribute, good crowd of older rockers all giving it some for the 50th Anniversary of Motorhead. 🤘🏻

Pre-work #LegClub pic.

All venue checks done, a moment of calm before the gyrating hoards start arriving.

Roll on 04:00

Early AM #LegClub entry, quiet station and train due.

Rest and sleep a few miles away yet. 😴

My 4am walk back to the station #TreeClub entry.

Skeletal in winter but glorious in summer, always say hi to this tree when I'm in Leicester, a nice counterpoint to the rather brutal Town Hall.
