New haircut - A selfie of a pale woman with a blonde cropped hairstyle.

Of course, I choose to get all my hair chopped off just as winter starts kicking in. 😄

I know. I expect clouds and dismal rain for my summer holidays in Britain. 'Sake.

I got out of town and stole across the border for a wee break to Somerset. Slightly regretted it though... temperature hit 37°C. I'm not built for that sort of nonsense. 🥵

Trump is coming to my country... against most of our wishes. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

It's a very small thing, but just cancelled my subscription to Paramount+
...I'm in the UK, so I don't get CBS, but if I did, I'd cancel that too.
Bunch of spineless, cowardly, cucks. They've completely lost their way, bowing down to that orange-faced asshole. People will remember, for a long time.

Anti-racism rally in London, mid 90s, got a bit heated; Met police over-reacting...charging at us on horses from behind etc. Later, running down the street from the cops, realised who was running next to us, "Alright, Sensible" we said. The Captain returned the greeting; all of us still running.

Grassroots music venues are the heartbeat of live music and vital for building artists, communities, and scenes. Support them by buying tickets early, joining mailing lists, and sharing their events online.

Tragic. No amount of Benjamins could make that worthwhile.

Thank you. I don't think I'm visible enough to get noticed and added to any lists but, that's handy to know, just in case!

This is not good. Hope you get it sorted soon.
May I ask, how did you find out you were added? Did you get a notification?

Two messengers of truth and art.

The exterior of the Golden Fleece Inn, a pub in York, UK. The pub's name above a window and the entrance, some hanging baskets, and a model of a golden sheep also hanging up instead of a pub sign.

Interior, the back bar of the Golden Fleece Inn, York; the most haunted pub in the UK. There is a skeleton propped up at the bar.

York, last weekend. Golden Fleece Inn; the UK's most haunted pub. Allegedly.
Luckily my food arrived before I wasted away like the guy at the bar.

Hello to you both. Ed, it might just be the lighting, but your pint looks like Orangina. Definitely not as appealing as the Virtuous last weekend. (KB, former VP.)

I've been a bit absent. With continuing recovery, then ignoring the injuries and overdoing things at several gigs...it's been a time. I've had a time. Then I paid for it. 🤣
Totally worth it. This was one of the gigs. I adore this band so much. We all miss the departed Rev. D Wayne but... What a gig.

Word of the day is a favourite, from old Scots.

To ‘tartle’ is to hesitate while introducing someone because you have completely forgotten their name.

It's the Christmas countdown for nature lovers! ✨🎄

Every day, we’ll bring a little magic from the wild to your feed.

Who’s hiding behind door 1?.... Let’s take a peek…

Phenomenal. The lighting! The composition! This will come to be regarded as a masterpiece of avant-garde, abstract film. Or something.

The white dome and gold steeple of the Boudha Stupa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Boudhanath, Kathmandu. The steeple has Bhuddist symbolism on it, including the eyes of Boudhanath, and streams of blue, white, red, green, and yellow prayer flags attached from the top to the base, all fluttering in the breeze. The photo is taken from a street, busy with people, that leads to the square, so the temple is framed by the buildings either side of the street, and a bright blue sky above.

Good morning. 😊 Elise is very cute. 😻

"Awarded Best Museum" 👀

Superb. 🫡

Such a beautiful area. Hopefully I can do another trip there soon. 🤞

Thank you. It's been a long process, but slow and steady progress made each month. With patience, perseverance and physiotherapy (all the Ps!), I'll get there. Have a beautiful day. 😊

Hi! Most posts will be photos from my past travels. I might not post each day...been in recovery from several injuries since Jan 2024, and sometimes pain management takes precedence. Hope to be fit enough to travel again soon, to see wonderful places and have new experiences to share. Thanks. 😎
