Displaced proud Geordie and IT neanderthal from the days of punched cards. Worked all over the world 🇸🇪 🇧🇻 🇮🇩 🇺🇲 but fell in love with Canada 🇨🇦. Bit of an Oracle geek these days. Still looking for more boxes to think outside.

Used to go to Seaburn every other weekend as a kid with my Nana while dad went to Roker Park. Great memories. Thanks for posting.

Apparently these are Fly Agaric fungi. Spotted during the woodland walk this morning. Quietly splendid.

Just love how many of the most recent car designs are by Stevie Wonder. This caps the lot.

Apparently you can dig up the plant and split them at the roots, replant and create more for next year. So I'm told anyway.
I remember driving around Lake Erie from Mississauga around 2009 when I worked for BlackBerry. Beautiful place.

Hi Grace,
I have no idea either. This one was virtually dormant for the past 2 years and suddenly does this.

It's another dull cloudy day but this Japanese Anemone has burst into colour to cheer us up. You can't beat nature.

Just felt that it's grey and gloomy here today, so it's time for a nice owl.

The Dimbola Museum celebrates the work of Julia Margaret Cameron, one of the world's first photographers.
Amazing that this photograph of her dry plate camera, where seeing the results could take hours, was taken by a phone camera that slips easily into your back pocket.

I've just watched the orange felon on the news, who is back infecting our country. Said into camera he was looking forward to meeting Prince Charles. Charles is probably already cringing at the prospect of having dinner with a rapist, and the thicko hasn't heard his mother is dead.

#photography #shadows
This is the shadow of my camera this morning in the early sun, on a tripod to take a time-lapse of a neighbours house getting a new roof.
I just saw a bloke in a hat playing a guitar and now I can't unsee it.

You have to feel a little sorry for #AngelaRayner after being hounded by the press into resignation. No mention anywhere on the TV news about the man who has single handedly wrecked Britain, and his tax avoidance schemes.

@newcastleunited.com Just wondering if Alexander Isak will still get £120K a week if he continues to refuse to play for Newcastle after the transfer window closes.
