A uniquely #Blackpool mark of the change of season is arriving at work and the tower lights are on. #autumn

It's taken me nearly 42 years to win something on the 2p machines and I'm made up! 😂

When you see someone has a #Yorkshire @tattydevine.bsky.social necklace on Insta and you get competitive...

#Lancashire
An acrylic Tatty Devin word necklace saying Lancashire. It is shown being worn around the neck with a smaller red gemstone necklace, against a black top and purple shirt.

A great trip to York yesterday with @knittymcsprag.bsky.social to meet the fabulous @xrstories.bsky.social and talk about our #ACEFunded Explore Tech, Expand Worlds project. The Guild Hall - what an amazing building!

Of course we visited the library too 🙂

An external doorway to the Guild Hall in York - it is a large historical wooden door, with a large decorative window above. A light and bright photo of York Central Library's gift shop, showing book-themed toys on display.

I'm usually one for sharing but I managed to nab this cute @bigthinkpublishing.bsky.social bug before my colleagues got to it 😂🤷🏼‍♀️

An extraordinary meeting of the Seagull Committee appears to have been called.

Today I popped to #StAnnes and into the fabulous #StorytellersInc.

So nice to catch up with the lovely Katie who owns it, and also what a surprise treat to receive a pay it forward surprise gift after saying I've been struggling to read fiction recently 💜

Absolutely loved Tango Calor at Layton Library last week. They even played Oblivion, one of my favourite pieces of music ❤️ Proud of the team for such a well-organised and professional event. And huge thanks to @spotonlancashire.bsky.social ! #LoveLibraries #Blackpool

Always a pleasure to visit other library services.

Today was a catch up with colleagues in Blackburn with Darwen at their fabulous Central Library (that has a theatre inside it!) 😊

Current read - An African History of Africa by Zeinab Badawi. The only history of Africa I learned in school was about Ancient Egypt or the Scramble for Africa (from the perspective of Britain, of course...)

This book is fascinating and important.

A little afternoon escape to #Yorkshire.
Hebden Bridge - a view alongside the Rochdale Canal. A rainbow sign on the wall saying "Welcome all sizes all colors all cultures all sexes all beliefs all religions all ages all types all people." Goslings standing at the edge of a canal. A blackboard outside a pub. The sign says The Old North and details a number of food and drink options.

Couldn't resist a visit to #Revoe Library in the sunshine today.

Very impressed with the local school children's book-stamping skills!

Avocado, cute shops, walk.

Avocado and poached eggs on toast with tomatoes and feta on a blue plate. Different coloured unwrapped bars of soap with French writing A shop interior. The shop sells sustainable products. A winding stream in a woodland.
