I love a mansplainer. According to Ol’ Mike here, the county I grew up in, doesn’t exist these days!! What do we reckon @hullhistorynerd.bsky.social @yorkswoldsweather.bsky.social @hullimages.bsky.social - anyone suffering an existential crisis of identity?

Nice little present on my doorstep to cheer up this autumnal Friday

Never ceases to amaze and frustrate me that, despite having to pay for parking, airfares, a bag, and a hire car to get to the destination, flying to Scotland is still less than half the price of train tickets

Can’t wait to be back Up North for a big celebration next year

When I initially clicked the link, this is all I got. I thought you were trolling 😂

That @paulwhitewick.bsky.social is sending me stills again… and this time I’m holding an imaginary owl

Recently, I saw a news story where someone with my maiden surname had discovered some interesting genealogy. And by the universal rule of people with unusual surnames all being related….

IM A DESCENDANT OF THREE MEMBERS OF THE GUNPOWDER PLOT

Happy bonfire night and all that 🎆🎇

That @paulwhitewick.bsky.social has been sending me unflattering stills once again. That can me only one thing…

I absolutely adore these markers on crossroads in the East Neuk of Fife. Can anyone give me an estimate to their age?

It’s a sign…

Wandering through the delightful High Street of Stevenage Old Town… and was met by this… a taxidermy rat in the middle of the pavement

Happy Halloween I guess

First weekend after three weeks of Covid and post-viral fatigue. Time to do some things, see family etc…

Or, have a huge sciatica flare up, and spend the weekend in agony…

It’s a total joke. Have a train

So yesterday, for the first time in my life, I had some professional photos taken. And of course… I had to wear the moquette dress in some of them

It’s not even 8am and I’ve already used the term “New Age Gricers” more than once.

Enjoy a train

I’ve had Covid for a week now. Whilst I’m over the worst the residual fatigue with this “Stratus” variant is tough. Meant to be in Cornwall eating all my favourite things. Instead I’m sulking in Stevenage.

Enjoy a train. Yes I’m so fed up I’m sharing a Pacer. I hate Pacers

For the scientifically minded amongst you…

If you’ve lost your sense of smell, does vapour rub stop working? Or do the active ingredients keep on working even if you can’t smell it?

Yes… I’ve got COVID and this stuff matters, how very 2020 of me

Have a train

Finally spotted 91150 in the wild today. She’s so unique and in my opinion, rather fabulous

(Photo from TGG, I was eating chips at the time of today’s spot!)

There is nothing cooler than a massive loco on a tiny railway

Autumn is certainly drawing in. The hats are back and we’re off on an adventure
