📸 September 2023 photo challenge. Day 26: Beverage
Last night’s pre-film pint. Contrary to what the glass says it’s Bohemian Northern Brown Ale brewed by The Durham Brewery.

A search of the archives brought up this photo of an artwork by Jean-Michel Othoniel from an exhibition at Centre Pompidou in 2018.

📸 September 2023 photo challenge. Day 23: A day in the life
Saturdays from September to April = hockey days. Slight anomaly today as playing in goal with all this clobber on (we won 2-1 btw).

Pre-match nerves on another level today, making my annual cameo in goal 😬

P.S. Forgot to say that this is another cheat day. This photo was taken back in 2011 on a visit to New Zealand.

Digging into the archives today because the story’s so good. An internet friend sent me a bow tie, it arrived just in time for a wedding we were going to and was the perfect match for the dress Izzy had picked out to wear. That’s magic 🪄

📸 September 2023 photo challenge. Day 13: Glowing
My first cheat of the challenge — today’s photos were taken by my wife. It was a no brainer given there’s a hot shop where she works.
📸 September 2023 photo challenge. Day 12: Panic
Found a nice quiet spot to spend my lunch break… then turned around and saw the vampire rabbit was watching me 😱

📸 September 2023 photo challenge. Day 11: Retrospect
I adore Lucy Rie’s creations and picked up this catalogue of her work on a recent visit to the Centre of Ceramic Art in York.

I have two questions about ITV’s rugby World Cup coverage…
- Why have they set it up to look like a political debate?
- Why are they making the pundits wear suit jackets in this heat?

Round here Sundays are for housework.

I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed watching England play rugby. All change tonight - a George Ford masterclass and finally playing like a team 🙌 🌹🏉
