What a delightful town Lytham is. We had travelled the 150 or so miles – return journey – to see our favourite author on the last stop of his tour for his newest novel, “The Woman In The Woods”. It was not the first time we have attended a book launch by Mr C but…

Liam presented me with a tee shirt bearing the logo that I created for his country music radio station. It’s come out okay, hasn’t it? And his station, HotCountryHits, sounds great too. Try it.

A trip to hospital to get my knees intimately sketched. Or something akin to that.

My newly built potting bench is complete and some daffodils and new basil plants look happy enough on it.

Enroute to Bethany and Liam’s to do some gardening involving timber sleepers and lawn shaping. And it’s the ideal weather for it.

I had to attend the training ground where Bradford City train. And here I saw the youth team minibus which I lettered a few years ago. Still looks good.

My daughter has asked me if I knew where they sold “chalky” paint the other day. It wasn’t something I had previously heard of yet, today, I found some.

Yesterday I discovered yet another orphan sock. Happily though, today he was reunited with his twin. Happy socks.

Cold, grey skies and a bird – a pigeon, I fancy – sits in the tree behind our house.

Easter Monday, a time usually associated with the renewal and rebirth of nature as spring unfolds, and we have yet more snow. Thankfully, this was all gone by early afternoon

This chap – apparently he is a character from A Game of Thrones, not that I watch that programme or, indeed, can recall his name – was one of the “scarecrows” in the inaugural Hove Edge Scarecrow Festival held over the weekend.

My friend, Steve, and his family came up from London for the Easter weekend. Of course they came to see us but a large part of their trip was for Steve and his sons, Dan and Scott, to watch their club, Leyton Orient, play an away match at Guiseley FC. Despite me living in the…

A trip to the garden centre with my daughter today. In total we bought twenty bags of compost, soil and composed landscaping bark. So much so that I was a tad worried my van might not be able to move with them all in. It did!
