Yesterday, I went to Morecambe… we hit the rain about an hour and a half into the journey and it stayed with us all day. Beautiful. Anyway, here are the photos from my trip.
As you’ve probably no doubt noticed, photography has become something of a hobby for me recently. There’s something quite nice about going to places and finding ways to frame their lovliness and then displaying that to the world. This summer holiday I went around quite a few places – some local, some on my long […]
This was sent to a mailing list I’m on. I thought it was a wonderful image, even though I don’t know the city and have never set foot on that continent. I also don’t know where the image was from originally, so I can’t credit you. Please get in touch if you know so I can […]
My first adventure as a National Trust Member was to East Riddlesden Hall in Keighley with a very dear friend… I’ve actually been here twice a week apart – once as a visitor and once to a wedding there. Now, this place is lovely both inside and out, except that inside the main house operates […]
At the end of May I went to Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal Water Garden, the most complete abbey in England and a beautiful Tudor style garden. It was a slightly overcast day, but a picnic was had without the interruption of wasps so everything has its plus points. Oh, and I am now a […]
On Tuesday, I went on a day trip to Whitby, for no real reason other than I was on holiday. The rest of the photos are here, in my gallery (link opens a new window).
Whilst in HMV recently, actually it was last October but my memory is rubbish, I came across this scene when looking at DVDs. For those that don’t know, Russ Meyer specialises in films for gentlemen featuring ladies of a large chest… Also given the price difference, which would you choose? I love the way the […]
When you think of Easter, or Spring, you think of a nice green valley, full of rabbits and frolicking lambs bleating their little heads off. Maybe a small goat chewing the grass in a field. Maybe you just think of chocolate and getting a tiny bit fatter. But snow? This was the scene from my […]
I’ve meant to post this for a little while now. This was reported on February 12th, so I assume it happened the day before. Dramatic photos, but fairly amazing it wasn’t more serious. A man suffered serious head injuries when a bus diverted as a result of the weekend fire in Camden Market hit a […]
Back in 1809 on this day (a month ago – I was never any good at anniversaries…), Charles Darwin was born. As you probably know, Darwin was the father of evolution… Plus he had a great beard. Speaking of great beards, it turns out Abraham Lincoln was born on the same day. I wonder if […]
