New Year, new jacket.
Sucker for a half-price Sale, me.
But what's that I see coming over the horizon? A new publisher? Fame, fortune?
Oh, no, it's HMRC's deadline for my tax return. ☹️

Two good things about Christmas: chocolates, and people buying books, which helps to pay for the chocolates.
Another box of TODMORDEN EXTRAORDINARY on its way to #TheBookCase, Hebden Bridge today.

Gone a bit arty-farty this morning.
Sunflowers.
Eat your heart out Vincent.
The daughter says this looks a bit '70s.
Which, as it happens, I do too.

Spotted by my daughter in a very nice cake shop in #Bala, Gwynedd.
In #cymraeg Cacen is cake, and ffenestr is a window*.
Window cake. This was a new one on me, but makes perfect sense.
No more Battenberg for me, henceforth only Cacen ffenestr!
* remember your French lessons?
