A birthday party in Animal Crossing New Horizons, in which three villagers share a cake with the player

Me holding my birthday cake

Spot the difference! This is how I spent my birthday - and without a visit from one of my longest-standing friends, it would have been just the birthday in Animal Crossing 🥰 both were appreciated, but I feel so very lucky to have a friend who cares enough to come a long way just to spend time w/ me!

Me and Kimberley on the train

Me, Kimberley, and Lillian outside Barter Books

Lindisfarne mead with elderflower, a book called Away and Beyond by A.E. van Vogt, a small badge reading "Barter Books forever", and a pack of Poison Garden playing cards

Despite nightmares last night basically centring around people being awful to me, I braved the outside world and introduced Kimberley and Lillian to Alnwick (and Barter Books of course!) never tried the elderflower mead but got high hopes for it...

Tonight I went with one of my dearest friends to see John Tams perform, and now I can say I've heard him sing "Over The Hills And Far Away" in person. A truly wonderful gig and I'm glad I went.

Visited Tynemouth Castle & Priory today. Got in for half price because they're doing some conservation work - definitely a bargain!

Had to go get a blood test today, so made a Thing of it and went to a couple of shops too. Can tell it's spring - a bit cold on the way there, bit warm on the way back 😅

My first gig in (I think) 5 years was definitely a success. Stressful but worth it. Saw Lordi with support from Sick 'n' Beautiful, and glad I did! Also stopped by the merch booths.

...Featuring a few pics stolen from Bowie (sorry), my souvenirs from the evening, and a close-up of the wonderful picture I got with Birb and Steve, which I will treasure 🥰

Just got home from almost 5 days out of the house including a meetup in Manchester at which I met so very many people I only knew online and (despite it being *massively* difficult) I'm very glad I did...

The adventuring party of Bells Hells stands together in a line, facing away from camera. Imogen floats above them crackling with lightning. They stand in the mouth of a cave looking out onto the red, alien landscape of the moon Ruidus. Above them, the world of Exandria looks in the starry sky. It is blue and vast

Went to Gosforth today so of course I had to stop by the graveyard. There's probably a holy/holey pun to be made about the gravestone, but it's almost certainly not worth the effort it would take for me to think it up.

Went out for a walk in my local area today. So much history here - particularly around the birth of the industrial revolution. (Typically, I decide to photograph Dial Cottage when it's being worked on; hence the scaffolding)

(also this is the post where I realised that there's a 4-picture limit; I tried to post 6. Here are the other two:)

Saw Tynemouth from a new angle today. Decided to go for a wee walk there, and realised I'd never seen the views along the river.

From now on, I'm going to (try to) post whatever I share on Meta platforms here. So here's the first:

You can take the girl out of the goth, bu- wait. No that doesn't work.
