Dramatic skies over the old tower of St Hilary, Wallasey, after a dull, wet afternoon. #Wirral #Photography

Looks like I’ll be self sufficient in apples for the foreseeable future. First basket from the #Allotment #Gardening, and plenty more to come!

Further to @davelifelines.bsky.social post about Ancestry's origins update, here's a map of mine, with the birth/baptism places of my known ancestors (there's a few more that should show up as "Scotland"). Hmm ... #familyhistory #ancestry

A great day at Cumbria Archives Carlisle. A beautiful purpose-built record office, a cosy lounge to eat your lunch stocked with back issues of family and local history magazines! ❤️ The trains however left something to be desired … (probably better than driving M6 there & back …?)
