I work in Town Planning, I like to run, photography, long walks, most sport but Coventry City FC and F1 in particular, tech, politics etc. Love my Ellie, Alex and Clem Fandango.
Different day today for me on my road to recovery. A trip (on my own for a change) to @hawkconservancy.bsky.social . No family so took the camera to photograph the beautiful birds. #Fujifilm #Fuji #Fujix

Not sure of the exact date but here’s a photograph of me and my Darth Vader lunchbox and thermos. Looking online I think it was produced in 1982 and I’m in my school uniform so I recon this is probably Christmas 1983.

Same. It’s far too cold to be outside now, apparently.

Two days of heat wave where I’ve barely seen him between sunrise and sunset. Now it’s back to sensible temperature we’re back to our afternoon nap routine.

Great day at #Tankfest with the boy, spent mostly wandering around meeting the display guys and listening to the stage events. Really enjoyed listening to Kate Adie and later @markurban.bsky.social
Spitfire flyby was the icing on the cake.
Heading back tomorrow for a day in the arena.

Lovely sunny day but Clem Fandango has decided that he’s going to chill in his bed rather than go outside.

Not really a kids book at all but having just finished reading James Holland’s brilliant Brothers in Arms I thought I’d read some fiction and revisit a set of books I’ve not read since my late teens early twenties, Ian Flemming’s Casino Royale.

Absolutely, no doubt you’ve had a busy day like my boy Clem Fandango.

@libreoffice.bsky.social How do we revert to a light theme? I just loaded up Calc and it is now, since the latest update, defaulting to my OS dark theme but I want the standard light theme for my office suite. I found a "fix" online suggesting to change the mode but that is no longer present.

Didn’t take long, couple of hours of solid sleep upstairs in the base drum for Clem Fandango but now lounging in his bed by the fire.

How on earth can we buy a flight from Luton to Edinburgh for less than a pint of beer.
How on earth are we going to save the planet when the train is more expensive than the plane. 😢

When you read about the German tanks in the second world war they are often heavily praised for being large, heavily armoured with huge firepower. But this extract from James Holland's wonderful book 'Brothers in Arms' goes to show that good tactics and excellent gunnery were more than a match.

Clem Fandango does not like this cold, winter weather. It's his first winter outside so perhaps he'll adjust, or perhaps he'll mope till Spring.
