We are Richard, an ambling beardsman, and Spaniel L. Jackson, the dog. Proudly Neurodivergent.
Starting slightly late because of telly, but #FridayNightIsMusicNight and we start with Emilíana Torrini doing Speed of Dark, because there was a song on the radio with similar energy and needed to re-listen. Spitting Off The Edge of the World by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Perfume Genius next.

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day but pish and tosh to that for we have turned off our laptops and flung ourselves into a long weekend! Boom! And what better way to start than an amble past some Victorian public funerary architecture?

Just got ticket for #SleafordMods next year - obviously “yay” but TicketBastard wouldn’t let me use our bank card, had to use our emergency master card card instead. TicketBastard are the absolute worst, a barrier to enjoying live music.

Good morning Blueskies! Grey and mizzly in the Vale today, meant to be fairing up later; wfh today so hopefully faff will be reduced, and aiming to get some time back this afternoon before slightly extended weekend, with plenty of ambling. Let’s get this done, people, let’s Friday!

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day. Faffing wasn’t the half of it. WFH tomorrow, and then a long weekend. Before that, an evening amble in the dark, bit cooler tonight, we took in the river beneath interesting but disinterested skies.

Good morning Blueskies! Clear and dry and crimson in the vale today, a wonderful sky: is that a warning? No matter. Stuff, faff and almost certainly nonsense incoming; however, wherever and whatever you are doing yours, let’s Thursday!
December 11, 2025 at 9:11 AM
Good evening Blueskies! Busy day. All the usual faff with added socialising, for good measure. Our evening amble all the more welcome, then, and it stayed unseasonably dry and warm. Went down the cobbles tonight.

Good morning Blueskies! Grey and dry in the vale today, bit cooler but not cold, not by any means winter; troubling, as was a leaky wellington boot; many meetings today, and socialising, we’re agin it, but what can we do? We can but carry on; let’s Wednesday…

Took a couple of bad/trippy pictures, not entirely on purpose, so thought we would share. Call it art.

Good evening Blueskies! Busy day. People. Meetings. Faff. All that. Let’s find calm and peace on an evening amble over rivers in spate, beneath clearing/interesting skies, see if that works better? Yes, that’s the stuff.

Good morning Blueskies! Damp and then some in the Vale today, unseasonably warm and floods across the valley floor, the small waterfall a cataract today; the world is at once on fire and drowning to enrich those who already have more than anyone needs; fight the power and let’s Tuesday!
December 9, 2025 at 9:00 AM
Good evening Blueskies! Busy day. Ridonculous. Managed an evening amble. M’col, who seems to have been a little off colour of late, appears to be back to his old self, and we trotted around the river like a couple of swells.

Good morning Blueskies! Dark and damp in the vale today, underfoot at least (the dampness that is, not the darkness); loads of faff and loads of meetings (faff, but with other people); so it goes: let’s Monday!
December 8, 2025 at 8:53 AM
Rather enjoyed #TWBTLATS, because (a) Tovey playing a blinder and (2) the relentless anti-capitalist, green agenda and iii. knowing who it will annoy. More please! Also, John Wick 3 is on. The fight in the knife and axe museum is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. #RichardWatchesTheTelly

Good evening Blueskies! Another soggy one. Damper than a herring’s hydro on our afternoon amble. We forebear. Got the outside lights up, watched some telly, generally relaxed. All good.

Good morning Blueskies! Grey and mizzly in the Vale today: let’s hope the rain holds off long enough to get the outside lights up. Failed to get an amble pic this morning, so here’s one from yesterday before the clouds and rain came down

Had a lads night in movie night, went for The Holdovers. Now there’s a Xmas movie.

Good evening Blueskies! Been ambling. Been raining, been leaving boots at home, been leaving snacks in the car, been getting perspective, mindfulness, exercise, all that. Needed in these busy, faffy days. Damp, though. Ambling actually through rain clouds as the rain fell.
