No more dusty tomes! Well, not at the futuristic Birmingham central library, at least. Enjoyed my mooch-around...

Do you remember muddy #goldenretriever dogs? 8 weeks dry. Nah .. me neither. Keep dem towels hung up nicely!

#SouthShields - they've got *blue* fountains! captivated ...

May morning sun, every day for a month now. Better than dreich gloom!

magical Tynemouth sunset yesterday! Looking up the river towards North Shields. Only half past 4 though :( ...

trying to think of best books I've read 2024. Can't remember first 6 months. Recent standouts: Agassi autobiog, Klara by Ishiguro, Possession AS Byatt, but personal winner 1924's EF Benson Mapp & Lucia What a delight! Bonus for 2025 & etc: I have sequels!
