Day 295 – 365 / October 22nd 2015 I had convinced myself that Nigella would not be willing to sign my portrait and was somewhat nervous upon meeting the Domestic Goddess herself. So much so that I was a little tongue tied and giddy – I cannot recall much of my brief meeting with her. Other…

 Day 294 – 365 / October 21st 2015 Our promotional leaflets (DL size, double sided) for our claret and amber socks and caps and trapper hats. Designed by yours truly. Models are family and friends. Spelling error and date mishap are my own! Turnstylewear.com

 Day 293 – 365 / October 20th 2015 Despite arriving at my usual time for tonights match at Valley Parade, I was unable to park in my usual spot and had to park on North Parade. So, that meant a walk along Manningham Lane which I do not usually take. This took me past an abandoned…

 Day 292 – 365 / October 19th 2015 The police helicopter was hovering over our house this afternoon. Obviously in pursuit of some villains and desperadoes, it hovered in one position almost directly overhead for a while. I hope they caught the bad chaps.

Day 291 – 365 / October 18th 2015 Flicking through one of Sarah’s magazines, I was pleased to see they are describing faux fur as a winter wardrobe essential. This is great because the Turnstylewear trappers have premium faux fur on them. Seems we are bang on trend!

Day 290 – 365 / October 17th 2015 Our third visit over the years to St. George’s Hall in Bradford to see the brilliant Charlie and Craig Reid, aka The Proclaimers. If they appear in concert near you, I urge you to go along they are fantastic live.

Day 289 – 365 / October 16th 2015 The claret and amber bedecked (on a ceiling? be ceilinged?) ceiling of my workshop.

Day 288 – 365 / October 15th 2015 This is a particularly nice shirt I ordered which has arrived.

Day 287 – 365 / October 14th 2015 I spotted this article in the paper today and it tickled me as I thought of my accountant who seems to take quite a few holidays each year!

Day 286 – 365 / October 13th 2015 My recent new tie and waistcoat seeing some action.

Day 285 – 365 / October 12th 2015 The colours of fallen leaves on our evening walk appealed to me. Most likely because they are, sort of, claret and amber. And you know how much I love those two colours.

 Day 284 – 365 / October 11th 2015 My natty new knitted tie. I think it is brilliant.

 Day 283 – 365 / October 10th 2015 Sign outside, yes, you’ve guessed it, a fire station. This one is in Huddersfield.

 Day 282 – 365 / October 9th 2015 My two favourites on one show. TV heaven and worth the licence fee alone. Nicole and Nigella on the Graham Norton show tonight. What a fab end to a week. This is yet another part of my “NN-November” – as you may know we are going to see…
