You don’t think you need to read a horror story about IKEA, but you do. It’s so silly, and so good

#vikingfriday. Here’s the little bit of comb from the Cuerdale hoard, taken at the British Museum years ago. Obviously the most important part of the hoard, not sure why no one else sees it. #vikingfriday

I have a bit of a pile of awesome books by my colleagues to get through at the moment, but really enjoying this as my bedside read at the moment

This photo used to annoy me; so hard to get cos of the freezing January gale- felt like my hands were being bitten off by angry weasels - but the photo is just a bit grey. But I doubt I’ll get to see something like it again, so I’ve come to appreciate it just for the memory.

Went off my head with the filters on this one from #Thingvellir, but managed to desat it just a little bit so it looks slightly less like Mordor

Trying to salvage some old Iceland photos I kind of spoiled by experimenting too much This one’s not too bad I think

Funnily enough I did one of these myself. It’s almost identical 🤣

Found this old picture of a little #medieval #church, I think some near #LakeGarda- anyone recognise it?

Thought I’d try and dig out some old photos I’d forgotten about. Here’s one of the stone ship setting at Bække / Klebbæk Høje, not far from Ribe in Denmark. The perspective here kind of squishes it ,so I kind of binned it, but I like it now as it’s kind of atmospheric. Well worth a visit.

If there’s anyone out there who’s not been yet, if you visit #Whitby Abbey do stop at St Mary’s church on the steps down to town- really interesting church and churchyard in a stunning setting. (I kind of like it better than the abbey)

Not sure if this place works like Instagram, but here’s a picture of a waterfall anyway.
