Took my 88y old mum for a walk, her short term memory is getting worse but she always remembers her walks with me enjoying nature. #fall #autumn #miltonkeynes #zeiss #lumix #nature #photography #lake

I can do streaming on my hi-fi but I end up not moving from the sofa for 2 hours or more. At least with vinyl I’ve got get up every 20-25 minutes. In conclusion listening to vinyl keeps you (slightly) fitter. #vinyl #music #awb #marantz #fluance

Had an unsolicited DM from person I followed back after I'd checked her profile briefly & it seemed OK. I didn't know but BSky lets you send IP logger links which I did, given the use of language I assumed it'd come back as W.Africa but it was LA/USA. Am I being paranoid? #scam #scammer #catfish

Just had a week in beautiful rural N Wales. Our home for the week was v much off the beaten track. This is the view from the patio we were greeted with most mornings. #Wales #cymru #photography #photoshop #pano #nikon #d750

I love rural Wales, this part of north Wales is mainly undiscovered by tourists. Saw just 2 people in 2 hours. #photography #nikon #cymru #Wales #landscape #d750 #Gwynedd

My wife Rita had a sh1t 2024 with cancer treatment, now well on the way to recovery. Asked her if she'd like a nice holiday, she didn't want anything special but she wanted to rent a place big enough for all the children/grandchildren. #cancer #bedgelert #Wales #cymru #lumix #family

Been suffering from S.I. joint pain in my lower back. F*** the pain so took some painkillers and had a short walk around a local lake carrying my heavy camera bag and monopod. Found this juvenile Heron fishing (not very successfully!) Getting old sucks! #wildlife #nikon #d750 #photography #fishing

Be Nice! It’s difficult as you get older. My neighbour was breaking up a ild shed and burning bits of it in Junes 25-30c heat. Not good, usually I’d have a moan at him and point out some local bylaws. Look at next comment to see what I did.

My wife Rita in the hat with our friend Sue, Rita's towards the end of successful but gruelling breast cancer treatment. Sue's been told she's cancer free after a bowel cancer scare. #cancer 3 cheers for our #NHS and #TeamMKUH

Looks like Gammon is off the menu at The Hawksmoor (for my American chums a Gammon is a shouty, far right retard in UK slang.) www.standard.co.uk/news/london/...
Tommy Robinson kicked out of London steakhouse as staff 'uncomfortable serving him'
Footage posted online shows Robinson dining with a group at the Hawksmoor restaurant on Air Street before staff intervened halfway through their meal
