Day 151 – 365 / May 31st 2015 Why is it that decorating one room always involves total upheaval throughout the house? What has this question got to do with today’s image?

Day 150 – 365
Day 150 – 365 / May 30th 2015 Graphics on the wall of “The Record Cafe” in Bradford. It’s strapline is “Vinyl. Ale. Ham”. Three rather fie words I think. A bar, record shop and charcuterie combined in one fine establishment. Only in Bradford.
Day 149 – 365
Day 149 – 365 / May 29th 2015 If you have never seen this fabulous show then I urge you to do so. “Friday Night Lights” is, on the face of it, about high school football in a small Texas town. Whilst this is true, it is about so much more than just football. It is about…

Day 145 – 365
Day 145 – 365 / May 25th 2015 The view from my patio as I look up towards my shed/workshop. The sunshine and blue sky, combined with the way the tree from the garden behind ours looms over, gives today’s image quite a striking feel. We are lucky to have such a beautiful tree to look out…
Day 144 – 365
Day 144 – 365 / May 24th 2015 This is the pile of TBR’s that I have beside my bed. It’s rather a lot, isn’t it? And in danger of toppling over at some point. I must do something about it. TBR’s? To Be Read….
Day 143 – 365
Day 143 – 365 / May 23rd 2015 My favourite flowers are French marigold’s and I try to have them in my garden every year. Anyone who knows me will understand why. Something to do with a team’s colours. Anyway, I love them. Sadly, so do the slugs and it is a battle of wills between me…

Day 138 – 365
Day 138 – 365 / May 18th 2015 A screen shot of my Mac screen is what you get today. If you care to look closely you will see it is page one of the “Great American Novel” that I am writing. That isn’t the title of my book. I am calling it “The Kerning”. Why?…
