I'm hoping to be back to work soon following my hospital stay and diabetes type 1 diagnosis.
My co-worker Will, the chap who writes my captions, is delighted and so am I. Can't wait to get stuck in!

It's only when you have to rely on the NHS that you realise how bad it's become in third-world Britain.
With my symptoms, I'd have thought a week for my blood test then 2 more to check results is too long.
I've worked for a German firm who make machines for Africa which can do it in a day.

Amazeballs!
I actually got to work today.
Christmas & Boxing Day at daughter's lovely old Bedfordshire pub, then studio shots today.
Afraid I couldn't be arsed to take the studio set up shot before we ripped it apart ;-(
But rest assured it was a quality product ;-)

I'd better get the drive sorted out- my Christmas present has arrived early.
Not all of them obviously- that would be greedy!
Just the 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Speciale in red, top-second in from right.

Aaaargh!
I've become a trendy in my old age.
Matcha tea. It actually seems to give me more energy than 'Bulletproof coffee', (see earlier post to understand what that is).
Next I need a bamboo whisk & Yerba Mate Argentinian silver cup and straw.

Rothwell's 'Jesus Hospital', founded in 1586 by local benefactor Owen Ragsdale for the purpose of accommodating single, widowed, old men. In recent times it was converted into flats for married elderly people.

Happy Christmas to all my friends on Bluesky & may it continue to be a friendly place unlike Musk's 'X' which has become toxic.

Not far from the city of London are several small beaches alongside the Thames. I visited one as part of the Barcroft TV crew, photographing and filming bubble artist Sam Sam, Bubbleman, renowned for creating spectacular displays with just soap and water.

James & Matthew inside their tent for cold weather acclimatisation before heading out on a 180 mile trek to the North Pole. Still from a video I made for ITN news.

The Gruffalo meets Christmas turkeys. Reminds me of the time I photographed the late Benjamin Zephaniah for The Guardian, & his 'Talking Turkeys' poem. He was a lovely bloke, just like my little grandson!

Blacksmiths and metalworkers are one of the many things that fascinate me. Here a 5th generation armourer making replica roman armour.

I just opened a can of beans,(in date, to go with chicken kyiv), and had a brainfart at the same time.
If you opened a tin of pemmican from Captain Scott's hut, would it still be ok to consume?

Good morning squirrels!
Here is a tranquil scene I shot out in Norfolk to help relax you all on a Monday morning 24 days before Christmas.
I wish your Monday morning turns out all you hoped it to be.....

I always use Hans Holbeinshop software for my portrait photos. It's very flattering to the person I'm photographing.

Here is one of Angelina Jolie, but the software wasn't needed for this one.

I'm enjoying watching 'Wolf Hall' on TV and the excellent lighting used in the production.
Here is one of mine shot for a cancer charity.
Can you guess the lighting used?
