Paid a visit to the recently relocated Keg Cask & Bottle in Prestwich today. It's always been a fab bar but totally loving the new space. 😍

What a treat. Lovely half of Elusive Carve 'n Yams over at Sheps Ale House in Chorley. Suitable reward (for us) after a thrilling 5-0 win for Bolton Wanderers Women. 🙌

No trip to The Masons today, but there was an exceptionally fabulous postbox topper over in Heaton earlier. Following on from their Winter offering I definitely think that the Heaton yarnbombers know how to bring the bling. 🙌

They just love them. This is Monty's downstairs apartment which he often curls up in. His upstairs one is a massive Lego box with a big arch cut in it for his door. 🐈⬛

Another lovely post box topper over at The Masons today. And there's also a pretty decent effort on the decorative floral front outside. 🌻🌺

I love a good book cover*, but I also love a book with an imaginative pattern on the page ends. 🙂

Passed by Lower Rivington Reservoir earlier and spotted a number of cones on the shore. 'Imself was wondering what all that was about and I reckoned it was our version on Anthony Gormely's statues at Crosby beach.

It's been a while, but went to an actual gig tonight over at Ye Olde Man & Scythe in Bolton to see A Pencil. They were phenomenal. 🙌

It's only taken us all season, but me n 'imself finally got to the last game for Bolton Wanderers Women at the mighty Reebok Stadium*. A 3-0 win, which also meant a top of the league finish, was just perfect. 🙌
*You can rename it as much as you want, but it'll always be the Reebok to me.
