I'm a gluttonous amateur cook with a love for amateur-dramatics at the People's Theatre, Newcastle. Also a keen traveller and bad joke composer. Here for convivial conversation and positivity. He/him

Finally getting into baking properly. Bought a kitchen aid and made some crusty bread. Absolutely delicious and the house smelled lush.

Unfortunately I was unaffected by the propaganda...

Friday night drinks it is.

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #2,117,468!

Exactly how I like it. Earlyish but not TOO early.

Lovely afternoon at Rufford Old Hall in Lancashire. Still has the original Tudor Hall where allegedly Shakespeare once performed something...

Shiny new Metro being tested at Four Lane Ends. Can't wait till they finally get this thing into operation!

European Garden Spider building a web in our garden. Proper amazing to watch it weave...

Content warning. Don't look if you don't like spiders!

Not been to Tynemouth market for years. Absolutely banging here today & it's lovely and sunny too. Great pint at Platform 2 also.

Lovely day out at Cheeseburn, Northumberland. Interesting place to visit, but not always open so you have to pre-book if you want to go. Local artists have their work exhibited there.

Every day is basically a cat day - but seeing as the internet claims today is internationally cat day - here's my cat Ebony in blatant disregard of GDPR as I haven't asked her catsent to post this pic of her.

A quick trip to Durham Cathedral today; the Peace Doves by Peter Walker are particularly spectacular and it's also nice to reflect on some human positivity given the events of the last week...
