Day 262 – 365 / September 19th 2015 I’m not in the habit of taking pictures in the gents, but I was rather taken with the blue light from the hand dryer.

Day 261 – 365 / September 18th 2015 A cushion made by my mother in law out of the small pieces of “waste” from our tweed.

Day 260 – 365 / September 17th 2015 You can’t beat an evening playing FIFA. Especially if you guide Bradford City to cup glory.

Day 259 – 365 / September 16th 2015 Let me stop you right there. I know exactly what you are thinking; “Surely this cannot be a picture of Gavin’s daughter, Bethany, enjoying a birthday desert on her 21st birthday?” I know, as hard as it seems to be when you look at me, I am, indeed,…

Day 258 – 365 / September 15th 2015 I am busy putting together a website for Turnstylewear. Web site design, albeit it using a template structure, is not my usual habitat yet, I am quietly pleased with it so far. These images are not ours and will be replaced when we have the products and are…

Day 257 – 365 / September 14th 2015 John Connolly is one of my favourite authors and I have seen him several times at various if his book talks. He is a joy to listen to and speak with. He has a new book out soon, “Nocturnes 2”, and I am debating if I should go…

 Day 256 – 365 / September 13th 2015 A review of the lovely Nicole’s new play “Photograph 51”. I am very excited to have tickets to see this at the end of November. The chance to see a star of her magnificence in person is incredible. Even more so if you are a fan of her work,…

Day 255 – 365 / September 12th 2015 My fabulous wife, despite sunning herself in the Med on our wedding anniversary, sent me this lovely bouquet. I like to have flowers in the house and these are fab.

 Day 252 – 365 / September 9th 2015 Who, you may ask, is this bearded chap. No, he is not the bearded one (the chap, not the lady) from the “Joy of Sex” guide from the 1970s. He is Keith Wildman, Bradford City fan and owner of “The Record Cafe” in that fair city. Here he…

 Day 251 – 365 / September 8th 2015 My notes for the characters in my book “The Kerning”. The main character is Lister. He’s a man who has done many bad things. Very bad things. But, hopefully, you’ll like him.

 Day 250 – 365 / September 7th 2015 Tomorrow my lovely wife goes on a cruise with her mum. In preparation for my week alone I have tidied my office and desk. My intention is to crack on with writing my book.
