Day 137 – 365

Day 137 – 365 / May 17th 2015 Yesterday’s “365” picture concerned Mad Hatters. Today’s image is simply “mad hair”. This is YT, pre-grooming on any given morning. It’s marvellous what Brylcrem can achieve.

Day 136 – 365

  Day 136 – 365 / May 16th 2015 Elaine, a friend of ours, turned 40 birthday last week. As part of her birthday celebrations she decided against a traditional party but, instead to have a “Mad Hatters Tea Party” to which she invited the girls. Sarah and Bethany bought themselves fascinators and put on their frocks….

Day 135 – 365

  Day 135 – 365 / May 15th 2015 You’ll recall, no doubt, that I have been involved in a project to raise funds for the PSBRU (Plastic Surgery And Burns Unit) of Bradford University by designing and manufacturing flat caps. We are now down to the very final caps having sold in excess of 630 of…

Day 134 – 365

  Day 134 – 365 / May 14th 2015 This is my workshop / studio. Bedecked in an array of claret and Amber as befits a Bradford City fan.

Day 133 – 365

  Day 133 – 365 / May 13th 2015 What a busy day I’ve had. I have been working at my accountants new premises installing graphics on their newly built office windows. I designed, produced and installed the graphics and frosted vinyl for the ten windows. Then, as another client was in the same mill complex and…

Day 132 – 365

Day 132 – 365 / May 12th 2015 Sometimes you simply have to go through your tie rack and straighten them all out. Maybe not quite in order of colour but to at least get them all tidy and neat. So, today, I did. And here are some of them. Quite colourful, I think.

Day 131 – 365

Day 131 – 365 / May 11th 2015 I took my image for today at the memorial service to the victims of the Bradford City Fire of May 11th 1985. The number 56 is for those souls who didn’t make it home to their loved ones. I did. The 56 who will never be forgotten. ACKROYD, John…

Day 130 – 365

  Day 130 – 365 / May 10th 2015 I like to call this image “Purple Topped”. Actually, that isn’t true as I have no name for today’s “365” image. But, as you can see, “Purple Topped” would be a splendid name for it if I was going to name it. Which I’m not. But, in hindsight…

Day 129 – 365

  Day 129 – 365 / May 9th 2015 Todays image is of my Mac’s screen. I have just finished writing my review of the rather wonderful “Fishbowl” by Bradley Somer. It is a terrific book and one that I urge you all to go out and buy when it is released in early August 2015. You…

Day 128 – 365

Day 128 – 365 / May 8th 2015 If you cast your mind back to Wednesday – it’s a little over 48 hours ago, so shouldn’t be too problematic – then you will recall I was on BBC Radio Leeds. Today’s picture is of my pass for the occasion and promotional shots of presenters of BBC TV’s…

Day 127 – 365

Day 127 – 365 / May 7th 2015 In case you were wondering, and to prevent any confusion, I took this picture of a polling station sign displayed outside the station we were at today. And, furthermore, I took it shortly before we opened our station. Sarah and I were two small cogs in the huge wheel…

Day 126 – 365

  Day 126 – 365 / May 6th 2015 This was a first for me. And a nerve wrecking yet exciting first too. Tom Fletcher from Bantams Banter invited me to appear as a guest on tonights West Yorkshire Sports show on BBC Radio Leeds. My fellow guests, John “Graham” Duckworth and Angela, discussed all manner of…

Day 125 – 365

  Day 125 – 365 / May 5th 2015 Here are my two little monkeys, Barbados Monkey and Berlin Monkey, looking after my photo of Grandpa. They are doing a great job too.

Day 124 – 365

  Day 124 – 365 / May 4th 2015 I’d forgotten that Bethany, Georgia and Emma had taken the trouble to get every Bradford City player at last weeks Player Of The Year Awards to sign this autograph sheet. I think it looks rather fab. Thank you girls.
