Family man first, scooter rider, music lover (Wedding Present, Northern Soul, 80s indie and much much more), church going leftie adopted Geordie nature lover. Don’t mention two stroke…
Many happy hours spent at the ‘Spanner’ as a youngster, and still head along there regularly. My own wee tribute - not as famous as Mr Knoppfler’s, but I like it!

Melys, supporting the Wedding Present in Galashiels, then Carlisle. Previous topped Peel’s Festive 50, but I didn’t know them at all. Well worth a listen.

Beautiful day in the north east and a first proper rideout - to Hemsley with a couple of hundred other idiots, then a quick stop in Stokesley

Two games in a week , two contrasting views. Watching North Shields Football Club against West Didsbury in the Vase. Shields lucky to still be in it…

Not a fan of winter. Can’t wait for the spring so I can get this baby out and about again.
