A look up the Upper #Eden Valley, #Cumbria
A moody shot (thanks to the sky and the clouds) with the River Eden in the foreground and a path to the side of it. The view is looking upstream with the hills riding up on either side

You'll have to take my word for it with this old pic, but my photos app memories tell me it's 10 years to the day since I had the fortune to be at the first Reeves and Mortimer comeback show after Bobs heart problems. What's Bob been doing since then? #allgoneabitquiet
I wouldn't let it lie. A poor quality 10 year old camera phone of Vic and Bob entering the stage at Eastbourne Congress Theatre

Got my copy of @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social Everything Will Swallow You the other. Fortunately I have quite a pile of books on the go, coz Henry is a slow reader and keeps getting distracted by the lovely cat bookmark. He may be a while yet, the idiot.
Henry is posing in his bed reading the book. He's definitely staged the photo. I know for a fact he's still on page 4.

Morning. Had a foggy start in the #Dale, but there is some sun out there somewhere
A picture of a garden with some pine trees. Sunlight is piercing through the trees and Illuminating the grass. Behind them the church and church hall can be seen silhouetted in what remains of the morning fog

Love the bright colours of London. It was a bit more grey when I was last there, but this is what London looks like from the revolving restaurant.

So today (26 January) is the 100th anniversary of the first demonstration broadcast of television by Logie-Baird. It's also the 50th anniversary of the first broadcast of the colour version of Ivor the Engine. So, today at least, Ivor (in colour) has been around for exactly half the life of TV

No Dogs? No Dragons? No happy!

RIP Alex Pretti
November 9, 1988 - January 24, 2026

A nurse who exhibited bravery and kindness. Murdered by U.S. government thugs.
Photo of a man wearing spandex leggings, a cycling top, helmet, and carrying a backpack and gloves posing with a mountain bike. It appears the man may have been participating in a race or event, because there's a paper sign, unreadable from this angle, affixed to the bike handlebars.

Made my first visits to Glasgow on a couple of occasions in the last year. Had a great time exploring the city and seeing so much great street art in all corners. Why spoil it with this slop?

NEW: Glasgow City Council has just approved a massive AI-generated mural to be painted in the city centre.

The illustration of Scottish elements inexplicably contains a bald eagle.

The planner says those upset about it are "keyboard warriors" who should "calm down"

The Telegraph (usual fare: “The Car of the Year is the Mercedes CLA – here is why you should want one”) has an article on “Britain’s 20 prettiest streets”. _15_ of them are car-free (and 4 of the others are very quiet). Restricting cars makes for better towns. www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/desti...
Britain’s 20 prettiest streets
Our writer lays out the country’s very best alleys, avenues, crescents, cut-throughs, side roads, back streets and boulevards

The #deer of #Raby #Castle
Four deer (one is hidden behind the left hand one) underneath a tree, all are in silhouette. The two on the right are sporting some magnificent antlers A deer with some antlers almost as big as his body, stares directly at you, wondering why you think that yellow beanie hat you have on is stylish headwear Some more deer in silhouette, though with some colour this time courtesy of a yellow low winter glow from the sun and the odd of green grass visible through the snow

Learned of Terry Yorath's death a couple of days ago. Had the pleasure of meeting him a number of times (and Gabby on occasion) in Henry J Beans bar in Beirut in 1996 when he was managing the Lebanese national team. He was always friendly to us even though we were a lairy bunch of Archaeologists
A bunch of dirty archaeologists (and this was us scrubbed up for a posh night out) with Terry Yorath on the far left of the picture. I'm the big lump in blue taking up more than my fair share of the photo)

It's cold. It's snowed overnight here in the #NorthPennines which is just covering the sheet ice. It can only mean one thing... It's @spinerace.bsky.social week #dotwatching

Good luck folks and hope to see some of you up here at halfway soon

Boxing day ride around Balderdale and onto Goldsborough Rigg #Teesdale #NorthPennines
My mountain bike laid on its side on the top near the edge of the stone plateau of Goldsborough Rigg with Blackton Reservoir in the distance An old stone trough of some sort sits randomly on the top of the Rigg hidden amongst the grass. I've no idea what it was doing there A black and white selfie of me in fetching mountain bike gear including helmet and sunglasses (sitting on the helmet). The front half of my mountain bike came be seen behind me A shadow selfie of me on my bike projected onto a dry stone wall

#Saltburn (on Sea, not the TV thing)
Saltburn pier and cliff railway viewed from the top of the cliff View back up the cliff railway from the seafront. The two carriages are half way up the cliff. At the bottom, in the foreground, is the lower station. It's closed up for the season A view back inland from towards the far end of the pier Looking out to sea along the pier. A line of benches are on either side of the pier which is vanishing off into the distance. A sea girl is flying above the pier in the middle distance
