An evening spent working on a logo for Liam’s forthcoming venture, http://www.hotcountryhits.co.uk

Six and a half eggs today from our ladies. Well. Six normal sized and one small egg.

Elphie The Mini Schnauzer Puppy in full “I’m tired, daddy” mode.

Some new additions to my Billingham camera bag were added today.

It snowed again late this afternoon and into the night. Elphie is poking her head through the curtains and blinds keeping a watchful eye on it.

I was mooching around the bookshelves in the room at Halifax’s new library where we meet for our writers group and came across this intriguingly tilted volume. It was locked inside a glass case.

Today I oversaw the fitting of the stairs and hallway carpet at Bethany and Liam’s. The finished article really complements and sets of their hard work over recent weeks.

A pre-match meal and pint with Bethany and Liam. Actually, this pint of Saltaire Onyx was supped while I waited for them to arrive!

This is one of the gates at the entrance to Paddington Cemetery and is where my uncle was laid to rest in 1946.

Today we paid a visit to the grave of my uncle, Charles Geoffrey Dimmock. Charles died in April 1946 at a little under one year of age and, obviously, I never met him. Just before Christmas 2017, my wife and I contacted Brent council to enquire if they could help us to locate his grave….

C2C’s final day. Sadly. But, what a terrific day. First up were Midland. They are brilliant. This is the bass player wigging out during their set. The concert ended with a blistering performance from Little Big Town. They brought the house down. Roll on C2C 2019. Tickets go on sale on Friday. I will be…

Day 2 of C2C. And what a belting day it has been! Plenty of great music, behind the music chats and intimate performances follow by a sensational, show stopping set by Sugarland. What entertainers Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are! They had the whole arena rocking. A fabulous set from them.

Today is the start of the Country 2 Country music festival at London’s O2 Arena. First up on the main stage was one of my current favourites, Old Dominion. If you haven’t heard them yet, give them a go. You will like them. I promise.

A long standing project for one of my oldest clients came to fruition today. This is a 28 page brochure which I designed and had printed for them. The client was very happy with the finished item. As was I.
