Radcliffe should remember we immigrants and children of immigrants are here because of British colonisation and make a huge contribution. He moved to Monaco to avoid £4bn tax. His club Man U owes everything to migrant players and migrant supporters. He’s an embarrassment to the club and game.

Happy Birthday Jim! @beersmanchester.bsky.social A photo from yesterday's Manchester pub crawl.

I gave ChatGPT access to some photos and asked it to create a Ken and Barbie type image...it chose one of my holiday shots!

Pablo Picasso's Guernica! I've waited many years to see the original... At Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid.

Tonight I set off for a few weeks on Spain's great train network again. 2 weeks studying Spanish in Madrid (& trying to remember my A level from 45 years ago!). Then Karkli arrives and we see Madrid and other Cities around Central Spain. Will be seeing Ellie Sedgwick in Madrid and then in Segovia!

Hastings boardwalk. Sometimes I think I might buckle under the pressure...

Hotel PomMarine. 7am routine, nice quiet breakfast by the pool. Often woken about 5.30am by a tropical downpour. 26° now, 30° every day, lovely sea breeze, I'm coping remarkably well.

Another day, another beach. Worthing beach. The steps, come down straight from people's gardens...

BARP Barbados association of retired persons. There are worse places to be put out to grass...!

Speightstown, Barbados, a drive up the West coast. Along the Caribbean sea front. Crumbling splendour of an old seaside town. Gospel music coming from chapels on a Sunday morning..

This time tomorrow, I'll be over the Atlantic, on the way to Barbados. Chilling, Snorkeling and possibly Scuba diving, back in 9 days...

Bill the cat and Dark Ale from Ascapart Brewing.. #KITTchENBarHawkshead

In Hawkshead village in the Lakes. Drinking Tea and chilling to this... Sunday lunch later.. open.spotify.com/track/7bz1lg...
