Good morning Blueskies! Cold and almost dry in the Vale today, overhead at least, brook and lodges in spate and very damp underfoot; meant to be sunny today - we’ll believe it when we see it: faff and stuff hurl themselves unbidden towards us: let’s Wednesday!

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day, this time with better commute (am) and French people. Damp evening amble. Dark. Wet. Cold. Not snowy yet: yet.

Good morning Blueskies! Drizzly and grey to star with, but got a better sky when the cloud broke and the dawn sneaked through to paint the sky a dozen shades of pink and amber; a better commute this morning, but a day o’ faff to contend with: let’s Tuesday!

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day, not helped by a 2hr 45min commute. Would take that when working in, say, Swindon, but not Middleton. Pah. Also, busy anyway. Our evening amble was dark and chilly, and not particularly photogenic, but have a picture anyway.

Good morning Blueskies! Bright and brisk in the Vale today, frost on the ground and a 2hr 45min commute (normally takes 20min) to get the week off to a great start. Let’s Monday!

Very much this. Pleased to say tonight’s gig was largely phone free and mosh rich, but, y’know, the band are up there on stage in real life, why reduce them to pixels on a five inch screen?
Gigs would be better without other people there mind. Bands should come and play at my flat. I wouldn't have to spend half the gig wishing I could taser people who insist on watching the gig through their fucking phones then. Couple of quick pictures at the start lads. That's all yer need.

Well that was absurdly brilliant. As if it could be anything but. #TheLevellers #GracePetrie

Good evening Blueskies! On a tram. Yet another blooming gig, more of which later: had an afternoon amble, not as sunny as we may have hoped but pleasant enough and made for a decent pic when it did come out

Good morning Blueskies! Almost bright and getting on for brisk in the vale today, promising for one of those sunny autumn days where a walk in the woods is called for; however you do yours, let’s Sunday!

Good evening Blueskies! Funny old day, had the Xmas Fair at Mum’s church this morning, decent haul on the bottle stall; now having a movie night/lads night in. Oh, and there was an amble, which was warmer and drier than expected. Movie is (thus far) the new Avengers thingy. Meh.

Good morning Blueskies! Grey but not as grim in the vale today, bit of rain, bit of mild flooding, the usual. Lots to do today, let’s Saturday!

Great gig tonight, slightly less impressed by the tram just giving up because of a bit of weather. On a bus, which involved needless running. Will be a late one. Good job not entirely exhausted from all the nonsense, then.

Well if you ever want a really good triple bill for a gig, go for #BritishBirds, who are from Chorley, #BadlyDrawnBoy and #BCCamplight. We speak from experience. Superb.

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day. In a pub awaiting refreshments. Off to a gig. More on that later. Very damp/breezy amble earlier. Getting to the sharp end. Stormy.

Good morning Blueskies! Wild, wet and windy in the Vale this morning, a morning for aching joints and waterproofs; the amber eyes of a fox caught in the beam of our head torch; darkness after dawn; let’s Friday!

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day. Just, y’know. Did, via the wonder of meetings on mobile telephones, get back in time for a much needed amble, in darkness but also dryness. Raining for the rest of the year by the looks of it. Found a tunnel.

Good morning Blueskies! Clear and brightening in the Vale today, looking like a good day to be stuck in an office; hopefully normal amble service will be resumed later… let’s Thursday!
