Day 225 – 365 / August 13th 2015 Do you like this? This is what I have spent the past few days producing, preparing and installing on site for a client. I cannot lay claim to the logo design as the client did that themselves. But, I produced and applied the graphics to this front door and…

Day 224 – 365
Day 224 – 365 / August 12th 2015 Another hat image for you today. This is my recent purchase from Goorin Bros in Nashville. What a fine hat it is too! As you may notice, I have added a little embellishment in the form of a jaunty little swatch of fabric in claret and amber. Many of…
Day 223 – 365
Day 223 – 365 / August 11th 2015 Bootham Crescent, York. A short time after my team, Bradford City, were knocked out of the League Cup at the first round stage by York City. To be truthful we didn’t play especially well. First half we were the better team and created numerous chances from open play. We…
Day 222 – 365
Day 222 – 365 / August 10th 2015 This is part of a text conversation I had with a chap who contacted me to do vehicle graphics for his van. I was recommended to him via folk on a Facebook forum for our local area. He called me, discussed what he want don his van, I sent…
Day 221 – 365
Day 221 – 365 / August 9th 2015 As a result of Bethany moving out this weekend, we spent today tidying things away and putting one or two items into her room. Part of this meant I collected all my hats together and gave them a good brushing out on the patio. Here they are enjoying the…
Day 220 – 365
Day 220 – 365 / August 8th 2015 This is a page from a photo book that I have recently designed myself and had printed by Albelli. It has some of the 1000+ images I took on our recent holiday to Chicago and Nashville. I wanted to be able to see some of the better shots in…
Day 219 – 365
Day 219 – 365 / August 7th 2015 Bethany, my daughter, moves into her apartment today with Liam. In preparation for her moving out, I have taken all my football shirts from my crowded wardrobe in readiness for moving them into her, soon to be vacated, wardrobe. These are a selection of my shirts; I have rather…
Day 218 -365
Day 218 – 365 / August 6th 2015 Behold the badges that Jeremy and I have designed to go with the caps and trappers we are making. They are in the colour schemes of the fabrics we are having woven – blue and white and claret and blue – to appeal to the various football teams. The…
Day 217 – 365
Day 217 – 365 / August 5th 2015 I popped into Brighouse earlier today and spotted this tie in a charity shop. An ideal tie for me to wear on match days – notice the colours? – it only cost £1.00. Too good a bargain to miss I thought.
Day 216 – 365
Day 216 – 365 / August 4th 2015 My parents called to see me today and bough this little chap with them. Perfect in my teams colours, he makes a lovely addition to my garden and is sitting just outside my office window.
Day 215 – 365
Day 215 – 365 / August 3rd 2015 I was given a balloon last Saturday. Well, it was my birthday. Today, nine days on, it is still in our house and just about hanging in in there. We have been using the balloon to entertain Elphie The Mini Schnauzer Puppy by pulling the string down just…
Day 214 – 365
Day 214 – 365 / August 2nd 2015 A shot today of my atrocious handwriting. More specifically, a shot of my notebook which contains my thoughts, observations and ideas for the story I am writing – all in my grotty hand. My penmanship is really a huge disappointment to me and I do try to improve…
Day 213 – 365
Day 213 – 365 / August 1st 2015 The joy of socks! I do like socks. Good quality, warm and cosy socks. And socks that support your feet and toes well. I admit to being somewhat conservative in my selection of socks; while I enjoy bright colours and bold patterns on some of my socks,…
Day 212 – 265
Day 212 – 365 / July 31st 2015 On the last Friday of each month, a small, but growing, group of people meet in Leeds, West Yorkshire, to help the city’s homeless by providing them with a hot meal, some warm clothes, hygiene items and, very importantly, a few kind words and some simple human…
