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…
Day 211 – 365
Day 211 – 365 / July 30th 2015 I have spent the past few days and evenings putting together a “photo book” of our recent vacation to America. Theses the image as, after many hours of designing, editing, tweaking and sorting through nearly 1,100 photos that we took, I eventually uploaded the finished article. I…
Day 210 – 365
Day 210 – 365 / July 29th 2015 I love this sign. Today’s “365” image was taken at our little towns hardware store. Sarah and I call the store “Over t’Bridge”. It’s actually called “OddJobs” – a name that perfectly describes what it sells, yet Sarah and I always refer to it as “Over t’Bridge”….
Day 209 – 365
Day 209 – 365 / July 28th 2015 What magnificent plumage and in such fabulous colours! Claret and amber always grabs my eyes. I’ve often considered keeping a few hens over the past few years. I think it would be quite nice to have them in a safe pen in my garden and to be…
Day 208 – 365
Day 208 – 365 / July 27th 2015 Today you can see Maggie The Mini Schnauzer enjoying a lie in. Maggie rather enjoys a lie in and here she is having rolled over for a belly rub. Maggie is nine years old this autumn and, throughout all those years, has been a great friend to…
